Saturday morning ride

The problem with weekends is they disrupt my diet and exercise routine. I usually wake up later, don't exercise in the morning, and eat a huge breakfast. Last week for breakfast I had 1200 cals of potatoes, eggs, bacon, and there might have even been a slice of french toast or two in there. It gets quite frustrating to do so good during the week and lose it on the weekend.

This morning, I decided to skip breakfast and go for a ride. Henry was the only kid awake so I loaded him in the bike trailer and off we went. Since we weren't really going anywhere we just headed north until we hit a dead end. It was nice. We saw all the ranches and animals and smelled them too. Someone apparently raises emus out here. Once we ran out of northbound road we headed west toward the mountain and then followed the base of it back around. Henry had a good time, especially when a dog came and ran along side him.

The ride ended up being 13 miles and took right about an hour. The 305 said I burned 670 calories but I'm rounding it up to 750 for pulling the trailer. We saw a lot of other guys riding this morning too.
