Date with a mountain
Climb until you can't go more
Now my ass is sore

After ten consecutive days of cycling in an area where nowhere worth going is flat and climbing constantly for two hours or more is standard, my ass sympathises with yours ;-)

Winter in the North
Bike tires crunch on frozen ground
Cash stays warm in bank

Smell of fresh rubber
Traction is well worth the cost
Skidding makes me cringe

Happily cutting
Through the fluffy snow and wind
To hell with metal boxes

Show up at trailhead.
Two right gloves don't make a left
Inside out is key

Truck at the corner
Pitying glare from driver
I'll stay safe - go first

I am visible
lights, reflectors and neon
Why don't you see me?

Blowout far from home
Walking home - no tools in bag
Bike shop looks so good

The turbo trainer.
Such torture in a flywheel.
Must obey Rule Five.

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
