Today’s post is inspired by the well known Japanese philosopher, Mr Miyagi. Yes from Karate kid! So here we go;
Beautiful morning, my friends. 🌅 Little warmer than expected, yes? Sometimes Mother Nature gives small gift.😊
Monday morning constitutional takes us once again across the great alpine pastures of East Yorkshire. 🏔️ Cattle have moved to winter pasture now — clear sign Seasons are changing. Soon cold wind comes, perhaps snow… perhaps not. ☃️ We keep pedalling. Miyagi knows: cannot control weather, only how we ride through it. 😉
Today we welcomed Louise, Kathy and Colette into our little world of two poles. You are very welcome, ladies. Enjoy sport, enjoy company, and remember — bicycle may have two wheels, but journey has many lessons. 🥋🚴♀️
Excellent turnout today meant two groups were needed. One group steady and sensible… very wise. 😇
Other group? Hmm… other group wanted — no, demanded 😳 — some “lumps” to be added to the route! 🤣🤣 Was this their idea? Perhaps.
But lumps were conquered with great honour. Nobody defeated. Everybody survived. Some perhaps even enjoyed it. This is good. Very good. Remember: road may have hills, legs may have pain, but spirit must remain strong.
Well done, everyone.
Now go home. Rest legs. Eat food. Drink tea.
And remember…
“Person who rides only flat road, never learns how strong legs can be.” 🥋🚴♂️
See you all again soon. Wax on, wax off! 😎
