I cycle commuted this morning. I got up and while I drank my coffee, I contemplated why I should not ride. I was tired, my head hurt, my legs were tired, it was going to take a while, it was hot, I had not packed my bag, I had to shower at work and I was tired. I got up, got ready and rode my bike into work, not because I wanted to, but because it is what I do.
I am slowly coming back into form as I approach the end of cycling season, but I know that every ride is now important if I am ever to get better. So I rode. I am glad I did.
I used to ride my bike to work too! Worked for a great company that provided showers, locker room -- and washed our clothes. Have you ever had to put those sweaty, wet clothes back on for the ride home? Yewwww.
