74.80miles

Ran out of daylight, and screw 100miles. Why should I ride for numbers? Great ride, saw plenty of turkeys, a few deer, almost ran over an unsuspecting groundhog. As I was cruising around the city at dusk, I thought, this is ridiculous. Am I just going around in laps so I can break 75miles? Maybe if I got out of bed before the crack of noon I could actualy get 100miles in, or if I would buy a headlight and tailight. Somehow the forsight to do these things has remained just out of my reach. Feeling pretty tired but the legs definitely had a lot left in them. Not sure I burned more calories than I consumed on the ride though. Spicy chicken burrito, ranchero taco, double decker taco, nutrigrain bar(strawberry), king size snickers, nature valley oats and honey bars, pop tarts(strawberry), and a hardee's double cheeseburger, also liquid calories in the form of one coca-cola and a qt. of purple powerade. That is pre-ride taco bell, a must for the serious athelete. Cruised by the tap room and they had some damn outdoor music and beerfest going on. I could actually smell all kinds of beers in the air. I just about went into a frenzy. Must fight the dark side. Screw beer. screw music. screw all of you. I am going to take a cold shower, then lie in the fetal position in the tub until my fingers are wrinkly.
