Woes of the Weekend Part II

Saturday morning the alarm went off, I know its 5:00 am, I think to myself what am I doing up at this hour, the sun hasn't risen and will not for another hour and a half. I lie in bed for a half hour nearly falling asleep. I finally bring myself to get out of my very warm bed on a very chilly morning in the 60s. I grab my cycling gear and go downstairs to eat breakfast. I suited up, and headed out with my dad on a cold morning to go for a long ride. On the way out of town we meet up with a small group of other crazy cyclists like ourselves. A long a grueling 55 miles later we dragged ourselves up the last hill into town. A good way to start to the day, but it left me quite drained.
