Finding a Perfect Moment on a Bicycle
Yesterday was the final day for the 2015 Tour de France, the remaining riders crossed the finish line in Paris and enjoyed well deserved champagne and respect from cyclists and cycling fans throughout the world. I too finished my tour de france yesterday, no not the professional race but a satisfying day on my bike that left me with a wide smile. I have been enjoying those satisfying days on the bike for more than 40 years, and riding in July always allows my mind to wander to the greatest race as I glide across the road with only my spinning gears and wind in my face. It has been that way since I had my 5th birthday party and removing my training wheels was the present that I remember vividly. Freedom and flow wrapped in a fantastic machine, just waiting to be unleashed. Many birthdays passed and bikes came and went, but it wasn't until I was about 13, that a real change happened.
