Are you sure you are not talking about me
I ride to see the outdoors as much as for exercise.
I try to set a steady pace I like knowing that th milk weeds are starting to bloom or watching a killdeer glide in front of me for 200 yards Things like that are more important to me than getting there fast. If getting there fast was that important I would drive
