I finally was able to get some saddle commuting time last week. Whew! I was pretty sure my head was going to explode!! I have opted to sticking to the C470 trail for a while, which really is a beautiful ride. When you ride on the street there's a lot of hubbub and things going on, and on the trail its you, your bike, the trees, bunnies jumping out of your way, and peacefulness (for the most part). I noticed something else last week too... everyone else you see on bikes, they're generally toting a backpack along or have panniers and are clearly headed to work as well. And you know what? The look on their face tells the story of how you feel. People will happily nod their heads and smile at you, they make eye contact! They will shout out a "good morning". They're happy to be doing exactly what you are doing...
It really is a joyful feeling getting on your bike in the morning and getting that fresh, crisp air first thing, and having pleasant/happy human interactions like that. It's all good for the body and soul. So pedal on...!!! :)
