A good week
It’s been a good week. Settling in to the new gig, catching up on all the stuff that’s been postponed too long. Cleaning house (metaphorically and physically) signing new clients, hiring peeps, bookkeeping, lions, tigers and bears – oh my! Gettin’ shtuff done.
Commuting by motorcycle roughly two hours each day has been my recent mode of exercise – just holding on can take considerable effort when I twist the wrist. After a glorious ride to work yesterday morning, I returned home in the late afternoon after taking a 20-minute side trip up Lookout Mountain.
That was the first time I’d driven her in the mountains. Wrestling through the generally slow, tight turns, while not going fast took significant effort. The ride down proved to be a great pec and thigh adductor workout, riding in general is a great core stimulant.
Riding is my version of kinhin (walking meditation) – feels good to be doing it regularly again.
Next up: Pedalling the dam loop!
