Where Have Different Circumstances Expanded Your View?
Another speaking opportunity this week,
Reminding me that there is always more to learn.
I “got” the parallel, that
Like bike trips, there are predictable parts,
Bicycles, miles pedaled, hills, weather.
What a Privilege to Get to Tell One’s Story!
My talk this week in Farmington, MN,
FUN!
Engaged, attentive audience,
Giving me their interested response
To my story.
What Is Fun Today?
My immediate focus is preparing
A TALK for some Senior Center gigs.
I want it to be interesting,
Encouraging, — especially encouraging.
Reminding us to live fully.
What Connects You to Your Community?
Gently, gratefully, I’m home.
Biking, tasks, obligations, opportunities,
Beginning to blur together.
Yet, each exists as rich piece in my life tapestry.

Knowing THE SINGLE thing
Needing to be accomplished in a day,
Is probably my favorite things about a bike trip.
Pedal to the next destination!

Tending Time
How are you tending your time?
I am so privileged to have been on this trip
Choosing what makes my heart sing.
Lucky me.
This has been my last day
Riding & being with this bicycle group.

Small World
You never know when your web
Of connections will overlap!
Ride took us through “Park of Trails,”
In Rochester NY.
“Notorious for people getting lost.”
My good fortune—riding behind Nancy!
Not lost.

Choose Your Route
Do you prefer crowded rush, or slower pace?
We rode about 20 miles of GOOD trail.
Very nice.
I like being on lengths of trail;
Knowing those miles are my clear route.

What’s Something Lovely You Noticed?
For a couple of months,
My total focus — riding miles, gaining strength.
Good results, I am stronger.
Effort well-put.
Riding one day this week,
Passing corn field, I thought…

What Task Seemed Too Big?
Two 62-mile ride days this week!
Whew! Made me tired & I did it.
At about 45 miles,
I started thinking,
What “Maybe-I-Could” Thought is at the Edge of Your Mind?
My extending training rides are
Major focus these days.
Satisfaction of daily gain,
Makes hard work okay for now.
Did Things Show Up In a Different Way?
Six weeks from June 20 until Empire State Bike Tour.
Disappointment was my take—
Not getting to meet on Root River Trail,
For bike ride with son & young boys,
Plus, picnic in a park.
Seemed like loss.
