I committed. I bought two pairs of biking pants yesterday evening.
My wife likes them, so all in all, I think that makes them a good purchase. If nothing else, I'll just wear them around the house as lingerie.
No ride today though. Had to get some things done around the house. Sunday is shaping up to be the nicer of day of the weekend anyway. On my trip to get "the pants" I also picked up a slightly larger seat bag that will hold my stuff, plus an inner tube. I'll get that ready today, and mount the hand pump. Picked up a new water bottle, but it is too big. I knew I should have gotten the smaller one. Tomorrow morning we ride.
Just over a year ago, at 41 years old, I decided to venture into the hobby of road biking. A good friend, who has quickly become a biking mentor of sorts, suggested that I keep an on line diary of my trials and tribulations. So I started noting them here. However I reserve the right to jot down any other nonsense that might spring from my subconcious.

A man told his grandson: "A terrible fight is going on inside me -- a fight between two wolves. One is evil, and represents hate, anger, arrogance, intolerance, and superiority . The other is good, and represents joy, peace, love, tolerance, understanding, humility, kindness, empathy, generosity, and compassion. This same fight is going on inside you, inside every other person too." The grandson then asked: "Which wolf will win?"
The old man replied simply: "The one you feed." Anon

If you're not familiar with it, let me know and I'll send you the mp3... But you reminded me of Trip Shakespeare's "The Slacks."
Put a $20 bill in that bag and forget about it. It's a good patch if you tear/cut your tire, and sometimes you just need it...
And don't wear underwear. LOL
