Scary....

So today Stephen wanted to go on a bike ride since I got my endorsement and all. So I was thinking like to McDonalds and back. No, he had a better idea. He wanted to go on a 140 mile ride to Wilbur, uh, no thanks. Luckily Tiffanni and Ruben were a little later than when we were going to leave, so we only went out to Odessa and back. But it was still 100 miles... I wanted to ease into it, you know like ride around in the neighborhood, maybe take the bike across town some day. Stephen said the only way I was going to learn how to be more comfortable on the bike was if I just jump right into riding. Now seriously, I don't know what my problem is. I have never really been afraid of much... (minus spiders, water, and a psycho breaking in and kidnapping my children) Not to sound all brave and courageous, but airplanes, jumping off bridges, driving fast, cliff jumping, sky diving, sign me up baby! Driving a motorcycle going 70+ while semis are flying by? Not my idea of adventure, more like a death wish...
But I survived and I think that I even had fun! At one point I got behind and had to do 80 to catch up. When a gust of wind hits me and I bobble I feel like my heart is going to stop. If you have ever read the Uglies and the Pretties book series, it was definitely "icey!" My sis-in-law Tiffanni, her hubby Ruben (who took the bike class with me last weekend, even though he's been riding for a few years. I think he took it so I didn't have to be alone...) friend Derik Hines and GF Jarna, and my hubby were everyone in attendance. We stopped and ate at the Odessa Drive-in and I sucked down an ice cold Mtn Dew that made me have to pee all the way home.... Fun day, in a way. :)This is the Bad A sis-in-law Tiffanni. She drives wwaaayyyyy faster than me. :)
