I have been thinking about writing a blog about cycling for awhile now. At first I wasn't sure if I could, because maybe I just wasn't "expert" enough on the subject or something. Then I thought I would just keep a private blog to help me keep track of my cycling experiences and help monitor my struggles and successes. But, cycling can be an intimidating sport to get into, perhaps reading about my less than perfect rides can help someone else decide to jump in and buy some spandex.
I am many things-a mother of 2 wonderful kids, social worker, volunteer, dog owner...but nothing has caught my passion like cycling. I love pushing myself to the limit, and cycling presents new challenges and seems to never get old. I can still remember the feeling I got the first time I rode my bike as a child with no training wheels. We had a downward sloping driveway, and I just kept trying to go down without putting my feet down. When I finally got the balance and took off, it was amazing. It still is! I just love riding my bike, and whether its cruising through the woods or flying down the road, I can't get enough.
So welcome to my blog!
