Wasp bite
This week, while doing the lawn, a nasty looking wasp decided to attack my thigh.
The sting hurt quite a bit and it got inflamed in a matter of hours. I took a break from the bike so as not to spread the poison around my system. I think next time I do the yard, I’m going to wear long pants and a long sleeve shirt, take a queue from the guys who do yards for a living.
MTB: distance 8.54 miles, average speed 13.1 mph.
Charlotte, NC
Spent 10 years in Charlotte, a block away from an entrance to the McAlpine Creek Greenway.
Switched to a mountain bike from the road bikes I was accustomed to riding for 15 years.
The time spent on these trails was most appreciated.
