THIS TIME IT'S SOCIAL
SOMETIMES YA GOTTA RIDE TWICE. An early one to get it done, and a later one just for fun. Like today. First, a quicky, hitting it hard on the local gravel climbs for 90 min. Then the kids arrived for a visit...
... and gave me a gift money will never buy.
A social ride.
A real one.
Honest.
Here are the signs of an actual social ride vs the usual hooliganistic hijinks of It's just a social ride.
Finally get out the door around 10, after searching through the kit basket to get the new son-in-law something matchymatchy...
... vs the planned roll at 8, don't be late.
Load up mostly borrowed bikes so everyone can ride...
... vs each rider having their own raceready steed with whom they are one.
1/2 mile into the ride the first of many stops for catching up and laughter...
... vs our usual don't get dropped or you'll be alone policy.
After 67 minutes of playing around on the same fun loop with berms and jumps and other fun stuff we hit In-N-Out for burgers, fries and drinks...
... vs 4-5 hours attacking and coughing up lungs and limping home to collapse into a coma.
Being social is always fun on bikes...

... because even on the fake ones where we're killing each other there is always time to talk and catch up.
Either on the warm up or cool down.
Many a lifelong friendship has sprouted from such rides.
Kinda makes ya wonder what the world would be like if we all rode alongside each other for a few miles.
