Let's See...What Do I Really Need Before I Pedal 5,000 Miles?
Hmmm. Wait, I know this one: blisters! On my feet!
Turns out my Keens aren't as keen as they ought to be. Or maybe I'm not supposed to wear them with thicker socks. But, see, I wasn't planning on being stuck in New York for two damn weeks, and I only brought clothes for a couple of days plus what I'm going to be riding in. So I've been tromping around the city in my camp sandals and boring holes into my feet. A dime-size blister on the ball of my left foot, a smaller one just below the base of my third toe on the right plus a nice deep one under a layer of callus on the big toe. It's podiatry p0rn!
Wonderful. Hell, while I'm at it, why not leprosy? Yeah! Who needs toes anyway?
Hopefully, they'll be healed up by the time I leave (possibly) on Wednesday.
Or maybe some time in 2016, if everything goes just right.
