Hear the crisp click of
brass cleats in steel eggbeaters
round and round and round...
The wind is blowing
get down in the drops and pull
use your very core.
Gravel under tires
hear pebbles' sharp staccato
and sandy white noise.
I ride to be one
with the wind blowing through me
and the rain's kisses.
We fight against the
wind itself, but how to live
without the in/out?
Lungs pull it in, deep
and I am renewed by it
in spite of itself.

I have never been a fan of haiku, because I always wanted a little more than 17 syllables can usually deliver.
However, I am well impressed by this thread... some great images here.
...and Kit, your "linked series" is just fantastic.
Thank you ladies... when I am not so tired I'd like to contribute something too... but in the meantime I just had to say thank you
Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".
