Wednesday Morning Bike Ride

This morning Katie and I broke out the bikes and for the first time in a long while went for a bike ride. We headed west from our house down south sound road toward George Town. We had forgotten how refreshing going for a ride was and as we biked along the shore a real sense of calm struck us. We made it all the way to the southern end of the George Town Harbor to the Eden Rock dive point. It is supposed to be one of the best snorkel places on the Island and we definitely need to get back there to snorkel. The ride out seemed very easy and we thought that we were just getting right back into riding no big deal. Then on the way back we realized that the ride out was mostly downhill and that tailwind which made for an easy ride out was now a headwind and sometimes crosswind making our 25 minute ride out an almost 45 minute ride home. Still it was great to be back out on the road and it helps us reconnect with the fact that our lives are not all work. Speaking of work, Caribcert went well and the college is getting into its fall routine. Two days to our Florida excursion and we cant wait to get away.
