This is a love story about a girl and her bike. Like all love stories it started out Rocky!
In between we had many great and wonderful Adventures but then we had a major Breakup!
Yet somehow through it all, I knew she was the one and only for me and yesterday when I realized it was our 1 year anniversary I called my trusty bike Skye and I said "Hey babe, I'm sorry. It was my fault. I was wrong. Want to ride tomorrow?" Just like that all was forgiven and I immediately started shoving water down my face to make sure there would be no trip to the ER! Skye and I are currently resting under a shade tree at Horseshoe trail. We are both exhausted. We are both hot. We are both happy.
As we were riding back to the car I couldn't help but think of all we had been through together in the last year. She got me through heartbreak and baseball heartache. She held my hands when I needed a friend. She kicked my butt when it needed kicking. She helped me become stronger. She let me see how strong I am. I was thinking about just how much strength I had realized in myself and how I actually owe a guy who broke my heart so much because he made me see myself in a whole new way and he helped me find my love for mountain biking so I really ended up winning so much in that relationship. As all that was going through my mind a Cardinal flew by and I laughed and I cried a little and I said "I love you too Daddy".
Happy Friday!!

I'm sure Skye was happy when I moved out so she could have her room back! Glad you had a good time with her! Be safe!!

I think only my Mom and you knew I was afraid to ride again after the last time. It went well.
DeleteGlad you're back out there with Skye. She was probably anxious to get out there.
ReplyDeleteSkye was so glad. I think she had almost given up on me. It took me a little time in the morning to talk myself in to going but I promised myself a trail I knew and even though it was a moderate trail I could get out of it easy. I'm happy. I missed it. Oh but my legs ar so weak!
