my bike ride


went cyccling this morn. 2 hr plus for 50km. went towards the farms. and saw cows, horses, birds! was looking hard to find pictures of the exact place i cycled at, but couldnt find. so these are just pics of horses and cows! it was about 10 degrees( i think) so shiok man! cycling in the cold. the sun was up but just freezing cold. my drink bottle did not even need to be refrigerated. had instant cold water. my hands were so numb that i couldnt squeeze the bottle properly to get my water out. feet numbe too, even after the hot shower. on the route, came to my fav spot, its this down hill that i usually coast down and admire the farms with animals and this lake(water hole) with swans/ pelican/duck/other flocks of birds. So i came to the best part of the cycle, coasted down, thinking to myself this is why i love cycling and life could not be any more perfect. When i reach the bottom, these 2 dogs pop out from nowhere, barking loudly at me, following my bike. So immediately remember bangkok bike tour dogs that caused a minor accident and i immediately slowed down. so they kept barking as i slowly pedalled. I remember they will go away if u squirt water at them. but i was so unsteady on my bike that i thought they could knock me over anytime. So my perfect moment is ruined, plus another dog joins in. darn. i was scared. i had this feeling that they were going to puch me off my bike, then i will fall very stupidly cos i cos the shoes clipped in, then eat me alive......their barking was just that scary. 3 dogs barking at me, following my bike as i slowly pedal, hoping they go away.
then after some time, they do go away but i was still too scared to start going fast again.

now, i am scarred....that perfect spot now will be me freaking out, thinking if there will be dogs chasing after me:(
