Where Have Different Circumstances Expanded Your View?

Another speaking opportunity this week,
Reminding me that there is always more to learn.
I “got” the parallel, that
Like bike trips, there are predictable parts,
Bicycles, miles pedaled, hills, weather.

What Connects You to Your Community?

Gently, gratefully, I’m home.

Biking, tasks, obligations, opportunities,
Beginning to blur together.
Yet, each exists as rich piece in my life tapestry.

Increasing mileage as I ride nearly daily,
Needed an “auto-pilot” setting.

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’s Your “Current Carrot” On Discouraging Days?

Slightly longer rides this week.
