Queen of the Road

bike I finally got my new bike professionally fitted at Orange Cycle today. They set me up with my bike on a trainer and took all sorts of adjustments. Then my bike was adjusted and given a few new parts to make the bike fit me better. After two hours I left with a bike that felt like it was made just for me! If you have any issue with your bike or have a new one, I definitely suggest a professional fitting! It was reasonably priced, too ($60).

This afternoon I took my shiny new toy out for her first ride!!! She is fast!! The bike felt seamless and light. It was just begging to go fast! I averaged 18-20mph easily.

1.28.10 027 I was on such a high I passed every cyclist in my way. It was funny because I passed two very fast cyclists right before a big bridge… I passed them and made it up and down the bridge- and then had a mild asthma attack!! I was diagnosed with exercise-induced asthma but it’s came under control with all my training. But today I was wheezing and taking little breaths… it was terrible! That’s what I get for being cocky ;)

Before my biking adventure I had naner-PB-oats and sweated through a great 90-minute yoga session with Ryan and Katy. The oats were very un-photogenic so we’ll leave it at that :)

Then Ryan and I said goodbye to Katy  and headed to Infusion Tea for some lunch!!1.28.10 009

I’m happy to report everything was great. Good service and perfect portions!

Ryan and I split the Milton Salad and Pesto Panini.

After lunch I had my bike fitting and then went to three grocery stores to restock our kitchen! To hold me over I had 1/2 bottle f High Country Kombucha, a dark chocolate square and a ton of Costco samples :)1.28.10 017

For a second snack before my ride I had an apple with some blueberries (and an unpictured glass of OJ).

Is it weird that I had a cup of mango salsa for a snack after my ride? It is delicious.

For dinner I was planning on a big, veggie-full salad but after my ride all I was craving was oats- AGAIN! I gave in since it’s good fuel for my long run tomorrow morning.
