Pedal to the next destination!

Knowing THE SINGLE thing

Needing to be accomplished in a day,

Is probably my favorite things about a bike trip.

Pedal to the next destination!

Tending Time

How are you tending your time?

I am so privileged to have been on this trip
Choosing what makes my heart sing.
Lucky me.

This has been my last day
Riding & being with this bicycle group.

Small World

You never know when your web
Of connections will overlap!

Ride took us through “Park of Trails,”
In Rochester NY.
“Notorious for people getting lost.”
My good fortune—riding behind Nancy!
Not lost.

Choose Your Route

Do you prefer crowded rush, or slower pace?

We rode about 20 miles of GOOD trail.
Very nice.
I like being on lengths of trail;
Knowing those miles are my clear route.

What’s Something Lovely You Noticed?

For a couple of months,

Good results, I am stronger.
Effort well-put.

Riding one day this week,
Passing corn field, I thought…

What Task Seemed Too Big?

Two 62-mile ride days this week!
Whew! Made me tired & I did it.

At about 45 miles,
I started thinking,

What “Maybe-I-Could” Thought is at the Edge of Your Mind?

​My extending training rides are
Major focus these days.
Satisfaction of daily gain,
Makes hard work okay for now.

Did Things Show Up In a Different Way?

Six weeks from June 20 until Empire State Bike Tour.

Disappointment was my take—
Not getting to meet on Root River Trail,
For bike ride with son & young boys,
Plus, picnic in a park.
Seemed like loss.

How Have “Could and Should” Balanced For You?

Yippee!
Positive start on longer ride-days.
20, 30, even a 40 miler this week!

How Do Consistent & Persistent Show Up For You?

Showing up,
Completing the task.
Grumbling as I go.

I guess that’s “consistent & persistent”.

What “Aha” Reminder Have You Had?

Mine came from 13-year-old source.
“Seems big — but
Actually, just bunch of little things”.

What’s Your “Current Carrot” On Discouraging Days?

Slightly longer rides this week.
These longer ride days are
HARD!
