Around the northern hemisphere of our world, we enter the toughest season for feeling motivated, positive, and determined to achieve our success.
Do not give up HOPE, just try a little harder to see the LIGHT in the DARKNESS.
Bicycle riding and bicycle touring are my means to find inspiration between the dark days of winter. Enjoy, I will share this inspiration with you, return if you need a boost of positive energy. Recharge yourself from the inside-out. Exercise is key to your health. (:

"If you worried about falling off the bike, you'd never get on." ~ Lance Armstrong

"When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments. Here was a machine of precision and balance for the convenience of man. And (unlike subsequent inventions for man's convenience) the more he used it, the fitter his body became. Here, for once, was a product of man's brain that was entirely beneficial to those who used it, and of no harm or irritation to others. Progress should have stopped when man invented the bicycle." ~ Elizabeth West

"After your first day of cycling, one dream is inevitable. A memory of motion lingers in the muscles of your legs, and round and round they seem to go. You ride through Dreamland on wonderful dream bicycles that change and grow." ~ H.G. Wells
"It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them.
