My First Monday Night Ride.

Well that is Cook's Corner. For those of you who don't know what Cook's Corner is, it is kind of like a hangout spot for bikers. It is funny cause on the front it says "Family Friendly" and "Everyone welcome." HAHAHA I am sorry that is funny cause every time I have passed by there, there is usually a bunch of motorcycles in the front and a bunch of sketchy bikers. Well anyways, that is pretty good car ride there you could probably finish a magazine (without the ads) or finish a section of the newspaper before getting there. So try to guess where I rode last night? Yup. And let me tell you I have not been this scared in awhile though. There is a trail going from around Los Alisos intermediate to Cook's corner. It was fine the first couple of miles, until we started to go more into the wilderness. I was very surprised that I lasted as long as I did. I was keeping up with the faster part of the group, until they went under a bridge and I lost them. So I keep riding and I was getting deeper in the forest. It kind of looked like this.

I was shitting my pants, I seriously thought I was going to be attacked by a Lion or some Hobo. I just keep riding and anytime I heard a noise I ride even faster. I was in a lot of pain and my muscles felt like they weighted 100 pounds. But I keep going there was one last steep hill and I rushed up and what I saw made me smile. It was Cook's Corner. I felt like Lance Armstrong finishing the Tour De France.

After celebrating I was pretty scared, I was alone in the dark. Luckily my knight in shiny armor saved me. :) But ya that was my first bike ride, but after everything it was a really good ride. Around 25 miles, I felt so accomplished. But ya, I am done for now, gotta go back to work we are going bowling with the kids today. Much Love.
