Bike ride, haircut
Jul. 22nd, 2023 07:09 pmI rode up Tunnel Rd and out Skyline almost to Redwood Rd, stopping where the road starts to descend, since I didn't want to climb back up again. I remember when that was a twice-weekly morning "short" ride to supplement the weekend longer rides when I was training for the CA AIDS Ride. It felt plenty long today, 20 miles and 2000 feet of elevation gain on a hot day. I suppose training (and the passage of 20+ years) really does make a difference. My friend was on an electric-assist bike and seemed more at ease with the ride.
My hair has grown long enough to be annoying again, so I tackled cutting it. The process felt a bit ragged, less careful that past times, but the results are fine. And my hair is wavy and grows fast and I braid it all the time anyway, so it's good enough. I started out to take off a little less than last time, but I think it ended up close to the same length, maybe because it hadn't grown as long after 8 months as after a year and a half.

Apparently my hair is type 2B, according to this explainer by Bee Quammie.
