A new personal record of number of days ridden in a row, but I didn't make my goal of 31 days of cycling in May.
Truth be told, burn out got to me. Unlike someone who commutes, I didn't have to bike anywhere.
I woke up Saturday, May 22nd, to a cold, gray day and there was no fire burning either in the fireplace or me. Kept looking outside and said, "I should go ride. Just 6 miles." The lips moved; the body did not.Unlike where I live in Oregon where there are myriad places to cycle and explore, here in Johannesburg my cycling mostly is around and around the condo complex.
I'll fudge it. No one will know. Oh wait. Someone will know: Me.
I decided to take a break and instead of riding my bike, I picked up a book.
Time to exercise the mind.
The body will just have to wait its turn.

Biking keeps our sanity, mentally and physically - but sometimes it's the voluntary move away from the bike that protects our sanity
