Today I went for an epic bike ride to Camden. I chose Camden as I was feeling rather inspired, I stayed up most of the night planning a film I want to make. I thought I would go to the costume shop in Camden and get some bits in preparation for the film to make me more motivated to pull my finger out and make it happen.
The sun was shining but it was freezing outside. My hood was up, my black balaclava was covering my nose and mouth, my sunglasses were covering my eyes, and my headphones were on my ears doing what they do best, blaring music.
Riding so fast I rapidly became thirsty, to my disappointment I quickly learnt that I had left my water bottle by the front door at home; it must have happened when I put my bike cleats on in preparation for my ride. I told myself I was not aloud to stop to get water and that I could have a drink when I had reached Camden. After an intensely enjoyable bike ride I reached Camden. The first thing I did was go in to the bike shop, buy a camel pack and then go to a coffee shop to fill it up with water and like a thirsty elephant I drank almost all of the water. I got everything I had intended to get from the costume shop thus my trip was a success. I wandered around for a little bit, I took spare shoes, as I knew I would want to wander around and I cannot walk properly in my bike shoes as they have studs on the bottom. Eventually I rode home, darkness was among me by this time, I do love the dark. I weaved in and out of cars, I probably made them feel like they nearly killed me but I long for that feeling it gives me a rush. After a long ride up and down hills, in and out of cars and through red lights I arrived home. I began to wind down.
