Bored and missing riding.

Ritchey came inside to visit last night. Said he was tired of being out in the trailer, his frame was cold, his tires are deflated right along with my hopes of riding this week. I tried to cheer him up by adding a light to the handlebars. He perked up some, but I need to get the tire pump to inflate his ego. I'll do that later. For now, he'll just rest beside the file cabinet.



Sergei doesn't like Ritchey. He acts all weird when the bike is inside. Strangest thing I've ever seen. How can a dog be jealous of an inanimate object? I don't know. I mean Ritchey doesn't get to sleep in the bed.


And one more rambling thought. I like socks. Especially silly bike socks. They come in all different shapes and sizes. Here's a sampling of my collection. Not all were present at the time of photograph.

Can you tell I'm bored? Can you tell I want to go for a ride? SIGH. Back to the gym tonight though - YAY!

I wonder what the dog has against the bike? That is strange.

He doesn't like a dirty, broken, not maintained bike around :)........Triffid

Our jack russell could care less about my bikes but the papillion will not stop attacking me in the drive way if I am riding one.
My bikes are completely pissed at me. I have only ridden once since last Thursday. And I have to go in the basement to work out; they just glare and give me the cold shoulder the whole time I am down there!

Great post, Jen. Sergei is adorable. He is probably jealous because he would like to ride with you? :-) Our cat is the exact opposite. He is a bike fanatic. He might disappear for hours but as soon as you bring out a bike he shows up and hangs around. Animals are weird!

Love your sock collection. Wow. (Note to self: Need more cycling socks.)
