Relaxing ride?

The plan was to go on a slow, relaxing ride to a family member's home; never does that happen...

Off I setm slow pace into town, no helmet, no bandana, cheapo gloves and some really terrible looking cycling shorts.  I planned to stay in the middle ring and twiddle but that just didn't happen, found myself descending a hill, shifting into high gear and almost sprinting.

Bang went the relaxing ride.  Every road was taken at full tilt and I felt great!  Not only did I beat my normal times for that circuit but I didn't feel tired when I got home.  The only real annoyance was the sweat in my eyes; I should wear a bandana every time...
