Spinning my Wheels?

"When did I agree to that? "

It seems that question comes to my mind more frequently now as I approach my 60th birthday this fall.

Yesterday, I realized that I had preveiously agreed to spin through Chicago late Saturday. And I mean LATE-long after twilight ends, and the spinning will be on my bicycle.


This hugh, multi-thousand person bike ride starts at 2:00AM at the Buckingham Fountain and goes about 15 miles up through town, then about 10 miles south on Lake Shore drive so you can watch the sun come up on your way back to breakfast and your car. Last year I did do the ride with my husband (who frequently hops out and does 18-20 miles at a stretch). But I this year I have yet to touch my bicycle.


And tomorrow, infact the rest of this week seems to be pretty well booked in. If I can post a blog next week you'll know that I survived, if not it was a short but fun shot at blogging.
