It's not always about the numbers

Today marks 2 months since my new bike purchase.  Here's my odometer:

My friend Kim and I were all set to hit a long 20 mi ride this morning.  We met up at the park in Cedarville.  I was really excited to hit 300 miles.  Maybe I'll hit 500 before the snow flies!!  Alas, I didn't realize it was FORGETFUL FRIDAY.  I should have been tipped off when Isaac forgot his water bottle at home this morning.  Cue helmet left at home:


So instead of a 20 mile coffee ride, we took a nice 4 mile walk.  It was a gorgeous morning! 

I'm reminded again; it's not about the miles; it's not about the numbers.  It's about support, it's about having a friend and being a friend; it's about getting out there, off the couch and doing something, yes for yourself, but also for the greater community. 

And trying again another day.
