Came up with a great ride title or 2 during the ride w/ Henry, David, and Kevin, but my old grey cells cannot recall it now. Been trying to remember for 30(+) hrs now. Giving up. Main gist was something about anticipating being too sore to get to Easter morning church service, so went to Cowboy Church the day before instead, in the format of a popular song title.... Which is exactly what happened. New ride for me. Today, we celebrate when Jesus arose again in glory this AM, but I sure didn't cover MY ascents yesterday very well. Added 38.5% to my yearly mileage to date in 1 swoop, as well as increased my ascents by 140% (less counting the 3 walked portions of 3 of the climbs). This is not to mention the considerable wind gusts that buffeted us, especially my aero (but not cross-wind aero) wheels, my forgetting my glasses after I got on route & realized the wind was drying out my eyes & was missing my rear view mirror, news of the passing of one of our receptionists mother during the ride, David's tumble over a bridge near the Church midway that rendered his rear shifter lever dysfunctional for at least part of the return portion of the ride, and eating some old fuzzy- spotted raisins in Bland. I am yet still alive. The absolute killer of a Right adductor muscle cramp @ 4AM was FAR worse than the raisins. Otherwise, it was a TERRIFIC ride w/ a great group. Need to have more days like this, if I could just find a clinic buyer, or they could find me, and maintain the philosophy, culture, approach, quality of medicine & surgery, etc. Then I wouldn't have to work 6 days a week @ this age, and these rides once every 2-4 weeks would be a bit easier.
