kengrI decided to kill two birds with one stone today.
I've been a bit late getting back onto the bike this year and had only made a couple of short rides. I need to get into shape for the WNBR at the end of the month .
So I figured I'd ride my bike to the clinic and exchange my full sharps container for a new one. It'd be a bit of a ride for my current conditioning, but worst case, I could stop and rest on the way.
Well, I got there, only needing to walk a couple of slopes. Then I find out that in the 5 or 6 months since my last excvhange, they'd changed policy and the no longer accepted full sharps containers. They did give me a new one at least.
The notice said I could take full sharps containers to any fire station. Great! There's one only a couple blocks from the apartment.
So I headed back home. I did have to stop and rest several times. and I drank most of a bottle of water. I had second one though.
Even found a geocache on the way home.
So I ride up to the fire station. Only to find out it's been closed. *sigh*
Now I gotta find out which one will be most convenient to drop off sharps at.
I had tpo rest a bit before hauling the bike upstairs and I made a bottle of gatorade (diabeticcs use it half strength, so I buy mix and make it up myself. Also has the advantage of not spoiling that way).
Next ride, I take a bottle of that too.
