directions_bikeSunday's Lunch Ride

The flies attacked relentlessly in swarms, coming in waves like tiny aerial battalions. The wind was blowing hard, somehow always orienting itself as a headwind regardless of which direction I turned. It felt like nature had conspired against me, but in the end, I was victorious – I conquered them both. Nothing says "epic triumph" quite like outpacing some confused insects.

I decided to check out the new cycle path to/from Trenčín, and it turned out to be a great decision. The asphalt was amazing and fresh, with low traffic making for a peaceful ride. There were two short gravel segments, but they were perfectly doable on my 25c tires. By the time I finished, I had such a hole in my stomach that I could have eaten a horse and still been hungry.
