Very good ride today. First time I felt good on the bike in like 2 weeks.
44+ miles. good speed.
#1)Tacony Street/State Road. Fairly ridable except for the big patches of coradory on the road around Tacony Creek Neighborhood, right about the Tacony Palmayra Bridge. Also, This is where they have facilties that, according to the signs allow people to ‘Change with Dignity’…The Philadelphia jails are all there. You can see Holmesburg Prison, right on the other side of I95.
Also, Also, Road Discovery: Lucy’s BBQ. Maybe I was just hungry, but hot damn, that place smelled good. I got to thinking ‘I wonder if they do chicken double white meat with corn bread, like Dallas BBQ.’
This is not good to be thinking about in the middle of the ride.
#2)Nearly killed the other two guys I was riding with when I noticed a 9mm bullet(casing and shell intact) on the road someplace in the 50s in West Philadelphia on the ride home, and had to stop and pick it up. AW had my wheel. Sorry, dude.
#3)All I could think of was that scene from The Wall. The one where the kid puts the shells on the train tracks. That and it looked really shiny and I wanted it.
#3)Got home to TIVO taping Liège-Bastogne-Liège happy day.
