It has started!

I am not sure who said it, but a journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step. In my case, it was a revolution. I rode with a few people from the Bicycle Planet team. We did a few hills, then took the bike trail over to the canal. Riding the canal is a hoot. The canal reminds me of watching CHiPs as a kid. It seems all the bad guys always crashed into the LA canal. I forgot my camera today or otherwise I would have been able to show the lizards, ducks, turkeys and geese I saw today.

So, an honest 48 miles today. I really would have liked to have started National Bike Month with a bang, but I was hurting today after breaking rocks in the hot sun yesterday for Rebuilding Together. It's great seeing people come together and help someone they don't know.

Well, it's pretty clear the weather is not going to help me out too much on my 1,000 mile month. Rain is forecasted from the 4th to the 10th. Looks like I will be getting some free bike washes!
