Why are you a randonneur?
What motivates you to be a randonneur? For me, it is ....
Sense of Oneness with the Universe / God
Being OUT THERE in nature far beyond
Like being twelve years old again--bicycling is the only important thing in life
Fellowship and friendship with unique and accomplished people
Helps keep me healthy
Can I survive the vissisitudes of life?
Motivates me to lose weight
Going further than I think I can go
The fun of seeing things in the world I'd never otherwise have seen

PS, If you're not a randonneur &/or don't want to be a randonneur, good for you. I guess you can list your top ten reasons why you are not a randonneur :-)
