My commute home today summed up many of the reasons I ride my bike.
- The sun warming my face
- The goofy grin that comes with simple pleasure
- A strong tailwind for much of the ride, pushing me faster toward home
- The smooth sound of tires running over wet pavement
- The fierce headwind and smattering of rain as I neared home
- A short break to consume the contents of a water bottle
- Ominous storm clouds in the distance
- Birds riding the air currents near the edges of the storm
- A full rainbow from horizon to horizon as I finish my ride
“The goofy grin that comes with simple pleasure” — I love it! I am going to remember that as I go about my day today, and I hope to have a goofy grin on my face more often than not.
Enjoy your biking!
So did you achieve your goal? 🙂 (goofy grin)
I sure did! And I’m grinning right now, having just read, and commented to, your engagement post!
That’s some wonderful news……
