When I go biking, I repeat a mantra of the day's sensations: bright sun, blue sky, warm breeze, blue jay's call, ice melting and so on. This helps me transcend the traffic, ignore the clamorings of work, leave all the mind theaters behind and focus on nature instead. I still must abide by the rules of the road, of biking, of gravity. But I am mentally far away from civilization. The world is breaking someone else's heart.

‎200 steel-studs to be precise, per tire. Makes biking much nicer in the winter;-).

Back on the bike



On my way to work 03052011. I appreciate our city for taking care of the bike-ways. I am so happy that I can enjoy winter commuting. Thank You.

This winter has not been fun for a commuter cyclist...
