I had that same feeling today, except I wasn't riding my bike -- just standing in front of the vending machine at work. A fleeting moment of nirvana as I ordered a bag of nuts. As the bag fell in the vending machine, I reconnected to the world. It wasn't an overly pleasant experience, just different from my normal vending machine experience. That I have a little cold coming on probably explains it.
It's either a cold or they finally fixed the Large Hadron Collider that exists beneath the French Swiss border. It will smash pieces of atoms together, generate temperatures of more than a million degrees centigrade, and some scientists believe, may create a mini-black hole that will tear the earth apart.
My momentary vending machine nirvana could be a sign of the latter.
