I’ve missed a few
days. I had some things going on. Some good stuff too. Who gives a shit.
Anyway, I’ve
mentioned several times before about riding on the local unfinished interstate
near my house. The latest news on it is
that it’s currently “on schedule” to be finished by the end of this month. I really enjoy riding on it because I don’t
have to worry about getting run off the road by drivers and I can take up as
much of whichever lane I choose. I
figured that I better get in one last ride.
Closed to cars,
yes. Who gives a shit.
The ride there is
relatively short, but when I got on the wide open interstate I let it go. It was nice as usual. I went all the way from one end to the other
as far as the barricades would let me (and traffic from the “finished”
road.) If you do it twice it’s almost
fourteen miles.
Fourteen miles of
solitude.
While I don’t
normally believe the reports of being “on time”
for projects like this, looking around I could tell that they might be
right this time. The road is complete,
and the only thing left was to paint a few lines here and there.
Most of them were
done though.
Check out those
clouds. It started to turn shitty after
I got back on regular roads, but riding in the rain didn’t bother me too
much. What did bother me is the fact
that I’m losing my private training road to “real” traffic. At least I did get to enjoy the shit out of
it for the last few years though.
Training kinda
sucks, but things like this can make it a little bit better.
Aren’t you glad I
took a few days off from here?
