Brief post because, again, fatigue.
Today we did a lot, but the highlight of my day was most definitely when I realized that I actually know more about bikes than I thought I did. My biggest fear about being a leader was that I'd be a complete fraud and know nothing about a bike...but today when we answered questions, there was not a single one I didn't know the answer to! I even taught some folks something new (crazy). 'Twas super affirming.
Opposite of a highlight: My phone died in my hands mid morning. Luckily I had my end of contract upgrade that I had been saving for a rainy day, but I lost all oft numbers and music and such that I had made sure to keep for the summer (if you think I may have lost your number, I did, so text me). Not a real big issue, but timing and such caused slight stress.
Then, we had a short ride to the lighthouse and back called the shakedown ride where we basically all make sure we remember how to ride a bike, as well as get a feel for our teammates' riding styles. In less than 15 miles, I already got my first flat because sometimes dips come out of nowhere...or sometimes you're just an idiot.
