thisnewdayWell, for me, anyway. The 2024 outdoor biking season.Yeah, my last "B" for "Bicycle" entry in my BP Log, where I keep track of this, was made on 11.20.24. After that, they're all "T" for (indoor) "Trainer" entries.
And yesterday I stripped off all of the removable accessories, like lights, horn, trunk bag, and mirror, and carried De Zwaan outside and loaded her into the Subie for the trip into town to the Mello Velo Bike Shop.
There, I checked her in for the "Deluxe Tuneup" which includes an overall inspection, any necessary adjustments, repacking of wheel and bottom bracket bearings, etc.
And then I drove home. And wondered, as I contemplated the empty space where she usually sits in my dining room, if that "B for Bicycle" entry on 11.20.24 might turn out to be my last. For always.
Because, not to be overly dramatic about it, the next appointment I have to schedule is for a cardiac ablation to hopefully control the arrhythmias which, for the past year, have not been fully controlled by medication.
Because, at my age, ya just never know.
Sorry for the downer and really do hope that everyone has a great day...
