Hard Can Create Satisfaction
Rides that have given great pleasure,
Are memories I’ll always treasure.
The things that I’ll do,
Will challenge me through,
And satisfy me beyond measure.

When Have You Had To Be Flexible?
You think that you know from your mapping,
The “all” of the ride you are tapping.
It could be that you,
Change to something new.
Original mapping, now scrapping.

A New View
I notice how often I hurry;
Passing by things in a flurry.

My portion of this ride has ended.
The time that I’ve shared has been blended

With good folks to meet.
My mem-or-ies will be quite splendid.

In the Groove
You know that feeling of “Being in the Flow?”
What a treat! So grateful.

When I bike awhile,
And it makes me smile,
I’m happy-tired, when the ride is done.
