I love to wander on the bike. I still see things I have not noticed before. Today I found a cycling friend I have not seen all summer. I lead wandering rides with others once in a while. Last weekend I ended up turning a 30 mile ride into a 45 mile ride because I was wandering. I made up a loop just by heading in the right direction. Only one person complained, he has not been riding much this summer. I have a good sense of direction so I know more or less where we even on strange roads. Some people I know are the same, some get lost instantly. I think having a good sense of direction makes wandering more fun. Most of my riding friends wander with me once in a while.
