Biking
Biking is the good. There is something about biking that puts things in perspective. You are exercising but at the same time going somewhere. You can feel the wind in your face. You don't have to stop and can slip through gaps that cars can't. You rule the road sliding between cars and weaving between pedestrians. You realise that getting there is half the fun of going there. Time becomes an irrelvancy because you can't go any faster. There's no point in worrying about what you're missing by not being able to get there sooner because you are already going at top speed. Road rage flies out the window.
I like biking.
ps when I went into town today there was a head wind. However, I managed to catch another cyclists slipstream the whole way into town. It was so cruisy. He thought I was trying to race him because I was sitting on his tail. However, I was perfectly happy staying behind him and keeping pace with him.

Ah the glories and wonderous ponderings of a brand new cyclist :D Yeah... there are times when you do get frustrated, but on the whole biking is good eh.
Brand new cyclist! I'll have you know that until the past two years I was an old hand at cycling it being my almost sole means of transportation :D
I live at the foot of the hills. I suppose I could bike up there and yodel or something. Those valleys may have interesting acoustics. So may I.
Hehe Fraser that's awesome :)
Ditto Matt.
Hey Jared, I bet your never going to read this comment, unless I tell you about it. Since this post is like a year old. And how sad considering this is the first comment i shall ever leave on your blog which I think I like and will read often. none the less.
You are crazy, I cant believe you followed that guy so closely, that must have been weird from his perspective.
Also I must disagree, I find that often I can go faster, and when I'm running late i just peddle harder. But hey that’s just me.
