Take 2 road bikes
Load on 1 child pull behind (a key ingredient)
Add in 2 bike wrecks
Leave some skin on the asphalt
Add in 1 snake
Sprinkle in a rain shower
Top it off with a little heat and road rash
Ride 50 miles
If you do the above, I can almost assure you that you will be exhausted beyond exhausted.
Daphne and I went to the Chief Ladiga trail outside of Anniston yesterday to ride and try out her pull behind that she got for Ben. Let's just say Ben will NEVER ride 50 miles with us. That stupid thing made it SO hard...I can't explain to you how hard it was just to pull a gallon of water in that thing. For you bike riders, it felt like you were in the hardest gear going up a hill the whole time. I love to ride that trail, and I think we might could have ridden to Georgia if we hadn't pulled the extra piece...but instead, it caused 2 crashes (one by each of us), and sheer exhaustion! Check out Daphne's blog too.
Check out a couple of pictures from our trek.
Don't I look sexy in my bike gear?

I don't know where you found the energy to pull the stupid pull behind for the last 18 miles but THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! I'd still be on the side of the trail if you hadn't!
