Weeds, Back pain, and Bikes

[Photo: Big Frank Dickinson]

Big Frank is back on the bike. OK, OK, he said that earlier, but then he was off. Killing weeds led to a killing pain in Big Frank's back. Why didn't someone tell him that you don't have to bend over to kill the weeds; there is no need for very close inspection of each weed. OK, Big Frank knows this now. The shadow is now in front of him; no, that's not right - it should be behind him. No matter, he is riding again. Sunday is the Lilac Century and Big Frank is doing half a century ride - that's enough, his back says. He'll be riding in the morning, and heading west so his shadow will be behind him, as it should be.
