A Budding Relationship
July 30th, 2007 by Cristina Favreau
You may remember the sad and frustrating event of my bike being stolen in the spring.
I was so excited, which is a big deal (the baby blues have taken a firm hold on me these past weeks). As soon as I got home, I took my (pre-pregnancy) bike shorts out of hiding and squeezed into them, blew the dust off my helmet, and strapped Katya to my back in her carrier. We took our first ride as a family, and my first ride in a little over 2 years.
Oh yeah, I initiated my bike (and body) by falling. I blame it on a 2-year biking dry spell and too-loose front suspension — don’t worry, I took the beating, not Katya.
My legs and behind are feeling it today; there’s a respectable-sized bruise on my thigh that’s promising to turn all shades of purple and yellow with pedal marks on the back of my ankle. But I like to say: “It’s a good pain!”
