i did my first bike ride!
haha
golidlock is an all girls ride in harriman utah
we originally were signed up for 80 miles {holy poo....} but since i have been out on my bike a grand total of 3 times before the ride i "rationally" told my sister there was no way that was going to happen, we negotiated on the 40 mile route! nailed it. there were some terrible hills that i was able to very slowly make it up, and i may have gotten slightly snappy for a little while when i got left behind by whitney because she is much faster than i but we were able to work in out and have some fun along the way!
the last 10 miles were just a gradual uphill climb of death but we made it. until about 20 feet to the finish line........
the grand finale! we had a bit of an accident.
we stopped watching each other as our family was cheering us on to the finish line. poor sister hit my back tire and hit the ground super hard, cracked her helmet but luckily nothing else! after we recovered and got back on our bikes to ride across the finish line i completely lost my balance while just standing still clipped in just on one side and fell over. nothing compared to whits tumble.
but we did it!
we made it 40 miles in 3 1/2 hours
slightly bruised and a little sore but we did it and i am very proud of both of us!
40 miles!!!! you guys are crazy! i saw that on instagram and didn't realize it was an actual race, i thought it was a warm up haha that would have been even crazier. good job! glad you both survived your crashes!
