Getting to the Finishline

I love this season "the promise of spring".
Just got back from a 20 mile bike ride in preparation for this Sunday's 5-borough bike tour of New York City.

What made the ride especially nice was having my piano player, Bert, leading the way. We talked about jazz, enjoyed the cool weather and went further than either of us had planned.

Two weeks ago I did 25 miles alone and the experience was full of self doubt about whether I would ever walk again and concern for the growing pain in my hind quarters.

Having company for our efforts is a great way to switch the negatives into positives. Make sure you pick someone who is inspiring to you, like Bert was for me.

New York City......I'm READY.
