It certainly was an intense weekend! I made it back home just as the dark settled in. I did get my bike ride from Davis but decided to forego the milkshake as I had overloaded on sugar the whole weekend. The wind was stronger than I had anticipated but luckily for me, it was generally at my back. I cranked my ride out, letting all the information from the seminar settle down and blow off my disappointment for not having passed the certification completely. I still have some more work to do to polish up my presenting skills before The League feels I am solid enough to be considered an LCI. It was definitely a bummer to find out, but not something that I felt was baseless nor was I the only one who needed to brush up a bit more.
I needed my ride more than anything after that. I love the trip from Davis; the long straight-aways, the deafening Causeway, and the contrastingly beautiful sloughs teeming with life that one can only see from atop their saddle--this is my heaven. The rhythmic up-down-up-down of the pedals is my meditation. Having a buffer between being in class and getting back to my busy home was perfect. My boys were as sweet (and crazy) as ever and my honey had a big bowl of spicy chili waiting for me. A quiet evening tonight and back to the grind in the morning. I think it'll be an early night to bed.
