Hey Guys!
Cool to find a thread about biking on here. I'm currently training to do two 100 mile century rides in April. I often feel pressed for time in my life, and sometimes it's hard to justify taking longer rides. But I waste so much time feeling bad about it before I actually get out the door. It's totally pointless. Especially because of the huge benefits I get from riding. It is like a meditation for me. I pedal and pedal and get into a rhythm, and the judgmental, negative voices in my head shut up long enough that I'm able to find some peace and presence in the moment, and sometimes even joy! I feel much closer to God when I'm riding. Just being outside in creation does wonders for my connection to the divine. Life is beautiful.
Much love,
Catherine
