cycling to honour health, life & happy healthy 2010

[shootingstar]

Well, no this is not really a fundraising ride for MS, cancer..

but aren't there times other than these fundraising rides for a particular disease research/care fund, where you are riding and feel you're cycling to honour health and life of self, loved ones and others?

Older that I get, I feel occasionally like this. Feeling just comes upon me particularily if it's a good cycling day/good weather or just plain being outdoors.

Sometimes I feel incredibly humble...that I can ride the bike in such lovely surroundings at home.

Happy New Year and wishing you health, love and wonder in 2010!

OMG Shootingstar - I feel exactly the same way!!

And I couldn't have said it better! :)

Thank You.

A Happy and Healthy New Year to All...

I, too, feel exactly the same way. Especially, if I feel as if my speed, distance, etc. are not up to what my goals are.
I always remember that I am out there doing more than 95% of the people around me.

I'm right there with you ladies!

There are days that I am so thankful that I have the ability to ride a bike and realize how very fortunate and blessed I am.

:) Yea, humbled that I even stumbled across an exercise/cycling that I love alot.

Imagine drifting through life and not discovering one's passions.

maybe it's the 'runner's high' of cycling. I feel the same way, something mystical about pushing yourself, challenging yourself and feeling great doing it. The feeling of leaving all stresses behind. Thank you for putting in writing what I knew was out there but couldn't explain! :)
