Early morning bike ride

So we went out on the bikes this morning. We starte at bothell landing at about 8:30 and rode to a little park with a beach in seattle. It was a round trip of about 18 miles. Max did great. He was a bit overly cautios at first stopping at the first sign of anything, but he got over that and we rode.

At the part I ate a GU (banana) it was really good. That should have been a clue to me I was hungry. I'm not that smart. about 3/4 of the way back I had to stop and eat another one (vanilla) that one was really good and I was shaking. I hadn't had much breakfast so it made sense, but I didn't think I would get loopy with such a short ride going on. I ate that second shot and put my last one in my pocket so I didn't have to stop everyone if I needed it. I wanted it but I didn't really want to jam another 100 calories down so fast. I wanted to wait to let the stuff I had in me kick in. I pushed the water hard and that helped move it along and when we got to the car I was fine again.

We loaded up. That's a workout in and of itself. We came home and I just had time to grab a quick can of soup and a shower before I headed out again.
