Favorite Ride: Any ride near a river and lots of trees. Seeing Deer, hawks, and herons is always a nice bonus.
Favorite Quote: "When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." --C.S. Lewis
Why I Ride: To center myself. To be free. To see wildlife. To see rivers. To be healthy. To challenge myself. So many reasons wrapped all together.
My Commute: when I do it, it's a round-trip of about 40 miles. However, these days, I'm far more likely to get my miles by running errands and traveling to destinations rather then riding the work commute.
