Spin Geek
I have just found the "blog of all blogs". I have found my newest, bestest friend. sighs. She doesn’t even know I exist, but omgoodness ! she has an entire blog on Spinning. Here it is : Unleash The Power of Group Fitness. I’m reading and reading and writing down playlists and I’m in heaven. You know this feeds into my "ipod" love, too.
I’ve actually looked at the calendar and figured out which days I can go to Spin class. I do not know why I am so in-love with it, but I am. Some people get this way with running, I’m this way with biking. I’ve always loved biking. Ever since highschool. I still can’t believe my father would let me just go off for long Saturday rides - by myself. No cell phone. No anything. He had no idea where I was. Sometimes I would ride over to the next city and buy a drink from the little store. Good grief. Amazing I wasn’t killed or kidnapped.
I had some really special rides in college, too. Geaux Tigers. My boyfriend at the time was big into cycling. We would get up on Saturday mornings and ride from Baton Rouge to the ferry and catch it and ride all over the little crawfish towns. What fun days. We’d stop at the produce stands and buy fresh fruit from the local farmers. Oh, to go back in time. Okay - I’ve totally regressed here.
I have this dream of riding the RAGBRAI. I’ve had that dream since 1992 when I first learned about it . Guess I might better get started on my training, eh ? I wonder if I could do that this year ? It would be the perfect year. I turned 40 and I really want to do something to remember this year by. If that makes any sense at all. That would probably be better than getting my nose pierced, eh ? Yes, I’ve actually considered that, too. I talked to my sister about it today. We both think the little nose studs are so pretty. Maybe when I get to my ideal weight I’ll do that.
Yes, I attended Spin today. Yes, I was in heaven. Yes, my never-regions are killing me. Will I go back ? Probably on Friday morning.
Peace out, Babycakes.
