Bicycle Karma

Posted by TheMeatGoat on June 11, 2009

oops-bicycle-crashWell, I’ve officially begun paying karma back for all the people who’ve helped me after my bicycle breakdowns and crashes. More about those in a bit…
After softball on Tuesday (1-2 with two very well hit balls), I was driving down one of my back road short cuts, about 5 miles out of town when I see this dude all decked out in bicycle gear walking his expensive looking bike down a hill, going the way I was coming from. I had some extra time, because our softball team is horrible and we get beat quickly. So I get about .25 of a mile past him and am able to do a U-turn. Turns out he was riding with a bunch of guys and blew out his front tire, didn’t have a spare, and all his buddies left him, which sucks, but what can they do? So, he was walking back to town where his car was parked. Fortunately, my trunk was clear and my seats were down b/c I went to home depot over the weekend to get 800lbs of lumber for the deck. So, we threw the bike in and I drove him to his car. He was an engineer from Motorola. I don’t remember his first name, but his last name was Colorado, which is pretty cool. I think he was Spanish…but I suck at guessing that stuff, I know he had an accent. Anyway, he seemed like a pretty solid guy.

No CFF today, rest day…thank God, my arms and shoulders are shot…although I’m getting an urge to run like 3-5 miles, that is just not right! I think I’ll be able to resist, but who knows…I’m thinking of getting some chucks to train in, we’ll see. Tomorrow I think I’m gong to go back to CDW@Play for some volleyball in the morning and then go to CFF in the evening.
