Hardware Store Ride

4/11/20


Hello reader,
Saturday I needed to pick up some pipe cleaners for a project that my wife was doing and I wanted to get out and ride. So I looked it up online and found that the closest store that had what I was looking for was in Edmonds about 7 miles away.
      I have driven to the area before but I had never ridden it. It was a nice cool, dry day. I headed out and found out why it is called the Edmonds bowl, going there was good, but coming out was more work than I expected. I made it out but there was a block (on the road in the picture with the bike laying down on the curb) that I had to go about half a block in my lowest gear, my legs and lungs were burning at capacity.
      But all in all a good ride, and I'm glad I made it a functional trip to the store without having to use the car. Mr. Money Moustache would be proud of me for that!


Keep the rubber side down,
