A fantastic article yesterday in the by Jeff Lund a local Southeast Alaskan.
Jeff ends this wonderful piece about the joys of riding his bicycling here in the Southeast by saying,
"Riding a bike is more about fitness now – mental and physical. It’s an inefficient way to get around compared to the internal combustion engine in my other ride, but it’s a much better cardiovascular activity. Rather than just riding around with no real agenda, I have a specific route in mind and a desired workout goal. Though the youthful simplicity is no longer present when I pedal, the fresh air, elevated beats-per-minute and even the numb face is a welcomed distraction."
Finally ending with, "but I should get a fender."
Jeff, we know where you can pick up a fender for this wet weather!
