Today my dad and I went on a really long bike ride on the beach. We do this evry other day for exercise. Our normal route is around the estuary and back. I dont like to go on the really long bike rides because biking on the sand is really hard.
I woke up at 10:30 am and got ready for the day. Then ate a apple and fixed up my crappy bike. I didn't want to go but my dad made me. When we started biking, I wanted to go one way and he wanted to go the differnt way. After arguing, I just followed him. We biked until my dad found a way to get onto the beach. When we got to the beach and started riding on it. We got tired really fast becuase our tires sink into the ground. Finally, we gave up and biked on the trail that was right next to the beach. When we were close to the mouth of the estuary, we went back onto the beach and started biking. We made it until we were on the point and then the sand got to mushy to bike on. So we walked our bikes around the point until there was a place where we could cut back onto the road and biked home. I didn't like the ride, but when I was done, I felt alot better and more awake.

Hey, Man... you are definitely on a blog roll. This is your third!! And it's clear from the story that your Dad is a tough taskmaster! Glad the ride ended well.
ReplyDeleteI'm still waiting to hear whether or not you will be taking me up on the challenge...... much love, bippy
Woke up at 10:30- what a nice luxury! You must be growing!
ReplyDeleteI went on a really long bike ride once and my bum hurt for days because of the uncomfortable seat. It was a 3 hours bike ride on a nice trail near the Mitchell's house in Morris Illinois. I bet it felt good for you to get some exercise. Keep up the hard work. You're developing healthy habits in exercising so that it will be easier for you to keep fit when you get older.
