Two Wired Monks
What a gorgeous day today! I met Martin Contant at Sports Replay in Langley, where I picked up my booties. I don't mean the kind you shake, but the kind you wear over your cycling shoes to either keep your feet warm or dry. This was Martin's first ride of the season. We made our way to Crescent Beach, where 2 pastors stopped for lunch at a cafe called the Wired Monk. Really, we only had one beer each with lunch, so we were hardly what you call wired! From there it was through White Rock, which was very busy on this sunny, warm day with people strolling on the beach walk, the dock, and the strip of shops and restaurants. On the way home from there we took O Avenue, which borders the U.S., and Martin and I parted ways at 184th St. From there he returned to Langley and I returned home. I left this morning at 7:30 and made it home just before 3:30. Total distance today: 128.5 kms. My butt's a little sore, but all in all not too bad. The bike is getting more comfortable ride by ride.
