Imagination fuels my pedals.

with No Comments

My bike will take me anywhere but my pen can take me everywhere.

Beyond borders. Beyond physical limitations. A world of cycling imagination.

Winter is hard for a bicycle rider in the midwest. On social media I see pictures of happy cyclists from around the globe flirting about hither and yon in their “winter kit”. Toe booties and tights with a wind vest does not a winter kit make. Try ice covered roads, frozen winds and temperatures well below zero. Let’s see that smile now.

All I can say is I’m glad I can go anywhere I want when I put pen and brush to paper. If living here means I have to suffer three months of indoor cycling at least I’m lucky enough to occasionally float over the Eiffel Tower. Untethered from gravity, free as a bird. This is how I survive the winter months.

Or maybe I fancy group ride on a summer day, in my minds eye, warm winds at my back. Friends at my side.

Where ever I do venture its the freedom and love of cycling that takes me there and the power of an imagination that fuels the pedals, and the paint brush. Thanks for tagging along.

The world is better on a bike. Enjoy the ride.
