Ride on..

Today, D and I went for an afternoon ride, which was the longest for me, close to 40 Kms. The roads were clean and mostly plane, though there were slight slopes in the middle which I could only feel when the speed relatively slowed down. I could feel how the body reacted with this gradual shift, and the force that was required to be applied on the pedal. I could imagine and draw Sine waves in relation to this. There were times, I preferred to stand and pedal, when it felt a bit too much on the saddle.
We travelled along some fields that looked lovely in the crimson rays of setting sun. One could just leisurely ride watching the scenery around, in no hurry. And with the weather so breezy and calm, it could be no better for a ride so smooth.
