Yeah, baby!!!! Austin Powers has nothing on me. I ooze Mojo! Some people have it and some don't. Perhaps I am one of the privileged few who can claim this. But the better question may be, how did I get my Mojo? I haven't always had it, and it wasn't lost, but I hadn't found it yet. It all came together in early 2006. That's when my Mojo went through the roof when I joined the Mojo Riding team. Ok, so it doesn't sound that exciting in print as it does in person. However, if having Mojo has to do with wearing neon pink and green spandex, then I am busting at the biking short seams! And looking good in these colors (as long as I am surrounded by my team. I'm not stupid. I wouldn't go out at night by myself wearing these colors. But I am secure in my masculinity). Anyhooo....
The Mojo Riding team is a group of road bikers who gather each weekend for group bike rides around south Charlotte and into neighboring communities. Rides are anywhere from 30 to 100 miles on a given day. I mostly do 30 - 50 mile rides, early on weekend mornings, but have done a few 60 milers, and in 2 weekends (on Sept 15 - 16), will be riding with my Mojo mates in the MS150 bike ride in Myrtle Beach. Yeah, baby...
We will most likely ride 175 miles over the course of the weekend - 100 miles on Saturday and 75 miles on Sunday. Flashes of pink and green averaging anywhere from 18 - 20 miles an hour. Sure, my butt will be sore, but isn't it for a good cause -raising $$ for MS? And, I have heard a rumor that there will be butt massages at the finish line each day. Yeah, baby...stimulating the Mojo???
So this begs the question, have I even been running to get ready for the Goofy Challenge? Absolutely, but not as much as I have been riding over the past few months. Have to make sure the glutes are in good condition for when the beach babes with twitchy fingers greet me each day. And if you are all good to me and keep reading my blog, I may tell you about my fundraising bike ride in 2006 - "The 24 Hours of Booty". Booty...oohh - yeah baby!!!
