Just a regular Monday morning

Things bike touring and construction have in common:

-hi vis clothing and head protection required
-long, grueling days
- you get up ridiculously early but end up running late anyway
-the tool you just used isn't where you left it
- you're too tired to do anything but drink a beer and pass out at the end of the day
-no good reason to bother with clean clothes
-people tell you not to wear headphones but sometimes you do it anyway
-everything hurts, ibuprofen only kind of helps
- your bag is heavy and filled with stuff you dont use but there's still something you left at home that you need
-coffee is necessary
- you're constantly exposed to the elements but the only real excuse to stop is lightning
-Sense of accomplishment clouded by pain
-You want to wash your hands at break but there's nowhere to do it
-"i really hope that giant truck sees me"
- you waited too long to put on sunblock
- you're not going as fast as you think you are
- it's hard to tell if you're really tan or just covered in dirt

Ok I'll stop now. Cause i shouldn't be wasting time on my phone. Hey, that's another one!Read more
