Change Your Mindset

Alli and I went for a ride downtown and back. She became frustrated at the little bit of a grade on Mullan on the way back home - a "false flat" of sorts to her 8-year-old legs.

"I HATE riding on hills!" she cried.

"Alli, I do too. The thing is, you just need to try to change the way you think about riding on them. Think about how they are making you a stronger bike rider, stronger than Ryan, stronger than your friends. Try to think about them like you like them, and it'll make riding more fun," I tried to convince her.

Deep thought....

"I LOVE hills! I eat hills for breakfast, and poop them at dinner!!"

That's my girl.......
