I have over 6,000 on my current bike and I have had several of those days. The blessing is that for each day like that, I have had 50 or 75 that were just awesome! The water stayed cold, no glass to dodge, all the driver's were courteous, the lights were all green, no head winds, and all the dogs were friendly!

Today, I popped two spokes, had a flat, got snubbed by too many other cyclists, but I was still out in the open air, riding my bike, and enjoying life!

Frank Sinatra used to say he felt sorry for people who didn't drink because when they got up in the morning, that was the best they were going to feel all day. My philosophy includes feeling sorry for people who don't cycle because they will never enjoy the freedom, the exhilaration, the absolute joy of cycling, the crappy days included!
