On my morning commutes, I often stop along the river and look left and see the moon, then look right and see the sun rising. That's pretty awesome. And hearing nothing but the bunnies stirring in the grass/leaves...ahhh.

Snakes and turtles crossing the road.
I always help them get off the pavement before a car runs over them.
The smell of blooming honeysuckles and privet hedges in spring.
Warm days in winter. Overcast days in summer.

On my ride yesterday there was one point where there were hundreds of small birds (starlings?) on the side of the road. As I rode up to them they took flight, with only those nearest to me taking off at any time. It was like a wave of birds. Very cool.
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

I love the "whoomp whoomp whoomp" of a disc wheel. The last one I saw out on the road was some guy with a sweet TT bike rolling through the streets of Paris early one Saturday morning.
