Why I ride

[pooks]

This is actually why I want to ride!

The idea of races and long distances doesn't do anything for me. But the idea of touring on vacation, of taking beautiful rides, does.

I guess it's the story of my life, though. I hate "walking for exercise" since I get antsy about seeing the same scenery all the time, get hot and tired and just want to take a shortcut home. But get me on a hiking trail and I can go for hours!

Thanks for the great post. You're lucky to live in such a place.

Great post! I was reading it to Thom and he replied, "Remember this on your tour."

I'm always trying to limit my time at rest stops. I need to be out of that mindset for the next three weeks.
