i moved to Sonoma Wine country. it was easy transferring my work to a different office. my new supervisor is excellent. nice, just like my last one.
my wife is now working. ..(HORRAY!).
living in an apartment blows. but i am strangely adapting. even my wife got used to my bikes being everywhere..i have one in the kitchen, leaned up against my gun safe.
we dont even own a couch. it reminds me of my college days. but now i have money.
there is fantastic beer in the area. i sometimes push my bike to Russian river brewery on the ride home and have a pint. no need for a bike lock, since i have my bike leaned up against the bench i'm sitting on with other cyclist. then i ride home and make dinner. i figured out the best way to get to and from work. 50% trail ride. very little road riding. i even showed it to my wife. she is half the distance and she rode it easy yesterday. my 2.5 hours one-way commute is a distant memory in my mind. gone..erased. traffic jams can suck it. suck it hard.
today, it was icing. i rode my mtn bike to Annadel state park. 33 miles of singletrack. and bikes are allowed!! joggers, horses, bikes all getting along. it was like i was warped into a different dimension or world. people being nice to each other on trails!!! i climbed a tough hill. trail was named GO ROUGH trail. it was ugly.
i posted up before that i hate change. almost scared of change. this is that moment that i feel stupid for fighting the move.
i havent even done the wine ride yet.
