I think I've perfected the art of riding for fun. I used to be speed-obsessed, but some medical problems kept me off the bike for nearly a year. I'm just getting back into it now, and sometimes I go and ride around the block just because I can.
I'd like to do one more century before i die (it's not imminent, as far as I know, but I'm 65...), so I may slip back into Training Mode, but I'm never going to forget how good it felt just to bet on the bike and ride aimlessly after so long without it.
