Second Ride

thisnewdayDecided I was gonna get in a second ride, outside, even if it meant skipping what was supposed to be my first day back on my exercise routine.
Also decided that, before the ride, I'd do the maintenance I'd missed on Black Allegro over the weekend. Plus, I'd picked up a USB-rechargeable, flashing headlight that I wanted to install in place of the nicer-looking but totally useless one I'd gotten a month or so ago.
That one was supposed to be useable with a friction generator, which I'd bought with it, but wasn't. And nobody's gonna comment on how nice the headlight looks when you're on the pavement waiting for an ambulance. Or next-of-kin.
Anyway, got all that done and went for my second ride, even though I hadn't had lunch and my blood sugar was low.
My time wasn't great, the new light was partly blocked by brake and shifting cables, but I didn't care. It felt great to have gotten in my two for the day again.
Because, one day soon, that won't be possible. At least for a while.
Hope everyone has a good night...
