this is...

this is beautiful...
...lines of bikers in bike lanes

this is frustrating...
...patch a hole, then run over glass

this is scary...
...blind right hand car turns with no blinker

this is awkward...
...kicking up a rock, hits the car next to you at a long red light

this is thrilling...
...skipping over technical rock gardens full speed

this is just awesome...
...self-sustained continental divide bike ride -- Banff to Antelope Wells

this is sad...
...white bikes at intersections

this is inspiring...
...pedaling North Carolina evenings with lightning bugs

this is exciting...
...all green lights

this is cold...
...January and no gloves

this is filthy...
...rainstorms with no fenders -- laundry time

this is exhausting...
...Flagstaff Mountain Road

this is all-around amazing...
...free food days at the CU Bike Station

this is happy...
...spring time rides and summer evenings

this is always great...
...pedaling a bicycle
