I road my bicycle to the farmer's market today.. decided I needed the ride and it was close enough anyway. It's pleasant enough riding through downtown streets my old race box (the bento box) normally stashed with peanut butter spread bagels and Gu packs now acting as my purse. I found out that a bag full of produce close to 3lbs becomes like 20 the further you carry it! I learned also that turning wheels become like a shredder when the wind blows just right; my front wheel biting through the plastic bag and spitting bits of red leaf lettuce at my shins as a strong western gust pushed the bag into my front wheel. More humorous than alarming really. I was mostly thankful it didn't get stuck and perhaps stopping the wheel suddenly.
Overall it was a great workout, I wasn't tempted to buy more as I had to carry it, and the trip to the farmer's market and healthfood store not only provided a good hour of exercise, but it gave me a great procrastination excuse not to continue cleaning my house.
Well.. back at it.
