Fellow riders, after not riding for several weeks, I recently went on an afternoon solo ride on my favorite personally built-up bike. Unencumbered by not having to remember all the pertinent facts necessary for a proper COWS ride report, such as; route, weather, wind direction, hills climbed at a precise grade percentage, number of pulls (or lack of) at a predetermined pace, location and speed required to outrun a three legged dog, ounces consumed of sports drink containing the overprescribed caffeine and electrolytes, time lost to repair a flat impeded by cold & stiff fingers, maximum speed on a cheating downhill, average speed and total miles, I happily lollygagged at an N S pace. Just me and the bike, absorbed in my thoughts, allowing a problematic world to silently glide by like fragile soap bubbles propelled by a whispering wind, with now fading golden leaves of autumn desperately trying to paint a prettier picture of images of my dreaming of glory long ago lost. Just one more mind clearing ride.
