The BFH strikes again

I have been riding the BFH for a while now, so I decided maybe it’s not as bad as I had thought, maybe we just got off on the wrong peddle. I have ridden it 10 miles once or twice and 6 to 8 miles many times. So I was really considering giving it a new nick name because it seemed to no longer be evil. However I now know that this was just a malicious ploy set up by this despicable bicycle to lull me into a false sense of security. I have been trying to change up my exercise routine, so I decided that some days I would run/walk and other days I would ride the BFH. It had been going fine until … I got on the BFH and I decided that I would do 10 miles again because I felt so good after the last time I did it. So I start peddling and I am listening to Pandora, singing along with some song on my Donald Lawrence station, and tracking my workout on Noom. Then I hear my update from Noom, one mile 6 mins, I am feeling good. The next updates 2 miles 12 mins, 3 miles 18 mins and I am waving to the people as I pass them by. Four miles 24 mins, it’s getting a little harder but I know I can do this because I have done it before. But man why is it so hard to peddle, this is crazy I have never had this hard of a time. Something must be wrong. So I get off the bike to see what is going on and I see that this BFH has gotten a Flat on the back tire and I know I didn’t run over anything. I am now on some back road with no shoulder and I have to walk that bike all the way home. Needless to say I was not happy. As I am walking I try not to get too mad at the bike and just leave it on the side of the road, but it is tough. Then I hear on Noom 5 miles 40 mins, I took  my phone out and I wanted to throw it but cooler heads prevailed and I just turned Noom off and walked the rest of the way home in silence. For this reason I have decided to stick with the idea about giving the bike a new nick name. Not because it is so wonderful, but rather because it is more evil than I ever knew possible. So from now on that bike will now be known as The Devil. (TD for short)
