|   That wonderful post-ride feeling. | GirchyGirchy
Nov 9, 2002 8:31 PM | | Is that not the best? I dunno about you guys, but I love how I feel after a nice ride. All mellowed out, driving home, just cruising. Completely at peace, and listening to some meditative music, such as the Disposition/Reflection/Triad set of tracks on Tool's Lateralus. Sipping on some water. Unpacking the gear, and slipping in for that wonderful hot shower. Ahhhh.
Mention this to me. Mention something, mention anything....and watch the weather change. |
| Aaaahh, the endorphin afterglow... | Dirt Pilot
Nov 10, 2002 5:44 AM | | ...My favorite thing is walking into work Monday morning after some great weekend rides. I'm in a great mood, ready to do cartwheels or something and everyone else has their "Monday" face on... they think I'm nuts!
Cycle therapy is what I call it. |

Nov 10, 2002 7:37 AM | | half-way through your post ride beer, letting a pretzel melt in your mouth, a slight ghost feeling that your legs are still moving, looking off through the trees - and all of a sudden - it gets really quiet. If you're with someone, you look at each other and smile.

Nov 10, 2002 7:59 AM | | Latley my post ride feeling is costing up to my truck, grabbing the bed afraid to unclip because my legs are a thread away from cramping. Loading up the truck and driving home. Getting home, not knowing how I got there, taking a hot shower (I'll agree with you on that one) and slipping on to the coutch with a beer popping a couple Advil. Guess that's what happens when you only ride once every three weeks. I have a smile on my face today from that 20 mile ride yesterday though.

Nov 10, 2002 4:06 PM | | I ride a little too long, gotta move on, start driving, but don't remember how I got there. Nice. Where's that Hendrix cassette? |
| Add one cold beer... | Jettstream
Nov 10, 2002 6:06 PM | | while you're in the shower, and if you're still endorphobuzzing you may hit one of those special peaks. It's not sexual, it's not totally unsexual, but it is definately sweeeet, it is sinful, and it is probably illegal in some states. Phffft!

| like when youre trancing along on the interstate | Hollis
Nov 11, 2002 6:58 AM | | car wheels humming...you see a diagonal break in the road surface and you jerk the wheel so you hit it straight-on instead of sideways (huh...coulda sworn that was a log).
You get to the office on Monday...people are bitching about Football Refs & bad calls...you're smiling...they notice you're moving kinda slow...you explain: I rode 20 miles with over 4,000 ft of elevation, I landed on my butt going 1mph coming down a snot slick muddy & leaf coverd hill...they give you that "You've Got to Be Nuts Look" and you dont say a word...just smile and say, "I cant wait to do it again next weekend." |
| Yeah, I'm gonna miss that..... | Ripzalot
Nov 11, 2002 8:42 AM | | Looks like biking season's over for me. I cleaned and lubed up the bike for it's winter hibernation. Pulled out and waxed the snowboard. Soon I'll be having a post-ride feeling of another sorts....much more sore and worn out, but it's all good.
BTW, Tool on the way there....Grateful Dead on the way back! :) |
