Sounds like some kind of very poetic tragedy.  Glad it was mind clearing for 
you.  Biking has a way of doing that.    kp

>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.
