Woohoo! Today I made it up a hill in my neighborhood on my bicycle. This same hill has turned me around on every other occasion. Part of the reason I was able to do it is that I did not have to come to a complete stop at the intersection, so I had more momentum to attack. I rode to Graham which has been a mini goal for me. By then I was pretty tired and knew I still had the return trip to make. But being the naturally sluggardly person that I am, I knew that since the old railroad beds that make up the Greenline would be straight and flat, I returned on a short section of the Greenline! (Graham to Waring) It was exhilarating!! It reminded me so much of riding bike paths in Germany with my son where we would see in backyards along the path. (Only in Germany, those backyards were fully exposed and you could watch families cooking out and playing, etc. ) I thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of being out in a forest, yet hearing the sounds of the city.
I am not counting this as meeting my 12 month goal. Doing a significant portion of the Greenline is my ultimate goal.
Congratulations!!!!!!!!
