Don\’t forget! Tomorrow begins Cycle September; so I\’d better be sure I don\’t wear myself out tonight like this fellow.

The forecast for the next few days is full of rain and T-storms. I hardly need say that I\’m none too pleased about that! We\’ve already had heavy downpours two days in a row. I hope the weather doesn\’t force me to \”ride\” inside.

\”Riding\” on an indoor trainer/spinning bike doesn\’t count towards Cycle September miles, as far as I know. It didn\’t count during previous challenges; so I assume that it still holds. If want my miles to count, I have to go for real rides.

I don\’t like riding in the rain. That\’s partly because of reduced visibility; and anxiety about when the lightning might get close. Sometimes the wind is so strong in a storm that it\’s all I can do to control the bicycle. I haven\’t been caught in a hailstorm yet, as hail is rare around here; but you never know.

But the desire to get out there and ride often wins. And don\’t forget, it\’s Cycle September. So let\’s get out there and make it a big success!
