Thoughts from biking and walking in Scotland July-August 2015

Part 5

I used to think riding was about being first, about being the strongest,

about being the best.

Then I thought it was about staying near the front,

about not losing face.

Some think if you can’t be first – then don’t ride at all.

Now, I realize that really, all along,

its been about who are you riding along this road with.

Who will be with you,

there,

at the end of this ride we call life.
