With the days I will be able to ride my bike this year getting smaller as the wind gets colder I finally completed a goal that I have thought about for many months. There were many reasons that kept me from this goal. I thought it would be difficult, I knew that it was dangerous, and I just didn't have any reason to do it. Yesterday I needed to run an errand to Louisville's Waterfront Park so I dressed warmly, put on my helmet and crossed the Clark Memorial Bridge.
It was physically a lot easier than I thought it would be, psychologically it was about as hard as I thought it would be. You just have to put the speeding cars out of your mind. It is a little harder with a dump truck but you get use to it. All and all it was a good experience and I can't wait to do it again in the spring.
RIDE ON!
