Its 4:00 am on a work day in August so I'm getting up and heading out on a ride. I normally have a routine I follow which involves a trip to the restroom, but I changed it up slightly this morning and that impacted my ride.
The temperature was a reasonable 80 degrees with a light Southwest breeze. A good morning for a ride.
Oh, one thing I forgot to mention yesterday, I passed the 500 mile mark for the year with yesterday's ride. It took me until September 22 (the Viva Bike Vegas ride last year) to pass that mark.
I was feeling pretty good out there especially considering this is my seventh consecutive day of ride. That is until about 4.5 miles into the ride I started to feel some rumblings in my intestinal tract. Things weren't too bad and I convinced myself to carry on, which I managed to do until about 2 miles later when the rumblings became quite insistent and the call of nature was quite urgent.
I made it back to the house, having completed only 7.2 miles, but it was enough for this morning.
