Day 105: The next cycling step

Calli: I am so eager to start upgrading the biking equipment. I would like to start practicing with the right shoes because I know that there is a big difference between cycling shoes and the straps that hold your feet in. The cycling class today went very well, and I felt more rested than yesterday. Afterwards, we ate and took a nap. It’s amazing how important food has become (well it has always been important to me). I hope that we can soon invest in some cycling shoes…happy fun time all!

Jose: We went back to the hard work today. We biked for an hour at different intensities since we did a spinning class. It is still difficult to use the seats without being in pain at some point. Gladly I can get up whenever I need to. We are almost set with all the things we need to buy for September. We just need the bike stuff. Obviously the most expensive things. However we decided to rent the bikes in Ohio since that will save us the trouble of flying bikes all the way there. The only and last thing that we are missing are the cycling shoes. We have a few possibilities in mind. We will make sure to keep you posted with pictures of our new gadgets.
