Heya… today I tried to do the 40k Badge on my watch. You know…the one where I have to go bike riding for 40 km… People I went with didn’t feel so set on doing so many km, but I was stubborn enough so I did some around the block touring as well, until I got to 40k by the end. My LilRock helped too.
So our set target to go to was to see the cycling tour passing by. Our friend, BikeBoy, really pushed himself to get there fast. Since he went to work today, left early… we were all worried we won’t get there before the cycling pluton arrived. Lucky for us, they were delayed by some unexpected traffic problem, and were late by an hour or so…
It was a fun event to see, went past us so fast 😄… Felt exciting when police cars and motorcycles started to come by… Then when I spotted them…😄 I managed to spare a few seconds to take some pictures and a 3 sec video, then I just wanted to see them with my own eyes and applaud and cheer 😁👏. In a few seconds the big group was gone, and then some left behind kept on coming for a couple more minutes. Was nice though. I liked it. We even got 2 water bottles as souvenirs 😱😁 They threw them at us, heheh.
After that, the trip was simple… The guys kept looking for more bottles on the way back but didn’t find any. It was mostly downhill so the speed felt fun and nice. The trip was 18 km till where we stopped, so I had to do some more “spinning” till 40km.
After we got home, we went for a beer outdoors, chit-chat for a while, had something to eat. The only thing I ate today was a soup in the morning 😂 so I was really really hungry :)) Especially since my watch said I consumed almost 1000 calories on the trip 😁.
Well… that was my day. Hope for more like this.
