The Pathetic Sixteen

Oh boy, another irritating pain started in my knee which made this planned semi big ride into sixteen kilometres of wincing pain. It wasn't that bad I just scared riding could escalate the problem so I booked it for home. The good thing is the pain as of this writing is gone. So hooray for being old.

*high fives self

The ride started in the land of the creepy old man. I left the Science Park and rode through the busy parts of Rundle. It was in Goldbar that I didn't like my knee and wanted to make it for home. I did extend it a bit by crossing Capilano foot bridge and looped back to the Science park. 

An absurdly large amount of boomers on e-bikes today. Not one of them were pedalling and just cruised along. I don't get it? I thought e-bikes were supposed to still be a healthy thing when about 50% of them just cruise along without a care in the world. 

Do I hate them because I am envious cause I suffer sometimes pedalling away like a moron when I could be living in the land of luxury with a 32 volt electric motor close to my balls potentially giving me ball cancer? Worth it if you don't have to work to go uphills right? 

*edited for writer narcissism (yes it got worse after the above paragraph.)

i walked from my car to get this cause i only had one pic, cool story huh? 

oh yes.. this one too, i just walked another ten feet from the picture before this. i work hard to keep you people updated, informed and most importantly, entertained

 

The Bike Gods Have Forsaken Me

Honestly not a bad ride...? But it kinda sucked. Absolutely no energy again with the legs having zero climbing energy.  A short write up, so...
