Sweet Ride Yo

My bicycle debut




Can I be honest for a moment?  I have not been on a bike in oh I don't know roughly 14 plus years.  Not since the days of riding down to ryans house with way to much makeup on, shorts to short  & a stomach full of butterflies.

I was nervous, what if it's just another one of my many unsuccessful ideas? Ryan can I have $400 to join Golds Gym, Ryan I signed up for water aerobics, Ryan I quit drinking soda ( ha ha that was a good one)
Can I ride a bike? Should I even be allowed to ride a bike? I am almost 30.
Oh so that's where the old saying comes from. "It's like riding a bike"  Really I hopped on and off I went.  I rode & rode until my thighs were shaking, my lungs were burning & water actually sounded neccesary.  I stopped, turned around and rode home.  Upon my arrival my sweet family was standing there cheering, clapping and yelling for me. "way to go mom!"
I felt proud, I felt happy, I felt loved & I felt a little confused as to why my family was so amazed that I rode a bike.  Who am I kidding? I was amazed myself.

Thanks babe for my new bike.
I love You.
