Charlie | mix941kmxj.com
It’s been a long time since I rode my Mongoose bicycle around town. I was king of the road thanks to the pegs it had on it. I could do all kinds of sick tricks. Now that I’m older, it would be nice to have something a little more…grownup.

Did the first part of the ride solo, to take it easy. I quickly noticed I had forgotten my bottles. I didn’t have enough time to go back and get them. I spent the first half of the ride debating what to do. Take a shortcut and hit a gas station? Ask someone on the ride for a swig of water and mouth herpes? Commandeer a garden hose? I stopped at a park on Collins but the fountain was turned off. Group caught me at Holford. By the time I was at the top of the route I figured I would be fine without water. If I could do the Prescott Circle Trail in AZ in summer over 12 hours with one water stop (don’t do that!), I could survive this. But it sure didn’t motivate me to want to go hard!

He was biking to work in East Austin Fri when he was nearly killed by a hit & run driver. After brain surgery he's on a long road to recovery.
