Default Needed a Haircut

Need to get a Haircut today, and rather ride to my normal shop about a mile from the house. I went to a shop about 10 miles away just to have a longer ride. How weird is that?

Now you have to find a place 20 miles away. I ride 60 milesjust to eat ribs, but it's worth every minute on the bike.

It;s amazing how those those short 5 mile trips turn into 20, 30, or more by the time you get back. Wife says, where the hell you been. I just went to the bank LOL. Bank is only 3 miles from the house

i sometimes do a 40km run to get fuel when the fuel station is less than 2km away,
I figure its a good idea to burn off any old fuel first so its all fresh.

I ride 90+ miles just to get a BBQ. Then 90+ back for a beer. The BBQ is $.25 cheaper there.

I've done that. There is one good barber in Sevierville that I like, he's been doing it for 54 years. But his shop is usually busy. So I have gone 20 miles over to Dandridge for a haircut. I enjoy the ride and the shop over there is not crowded.

Went with the kids to get Ice Cream tonight with the wife in the car, and me on the bike. Took me almost an hour to get to the Ice cream shop. The kids were kinda pissed.

Glade to see I am not alone.
