Tempus Fugit

[PaulG]

Guess what I did today?  I finally got out for 7hrs in the saddle!  My first ride of the year!    And it's August FFS!   My summer has just flown by.  It's been occupied by house maintenance and other BS that kept getting in the way.

I managed to get out into cottage country on some of my favourite roads.  The smell of ripening corn as well as fresh cut hay coming off the fields.  The acrid smell of the road tar seeping through the top coat on the back roads.  The aroma of pine tar dripping from the trees.  People tubing down the rivers.     It's the Sunday of a long weekend here.  Traffic was light because everyone is where they're at, and too lazy or inebriated to go anywhere.

It's these little things that help melt away the mountain of bullshit that has accumulated around me.  Let's hope the rest of your riding season can be just as uncluttered.

Sounds wonderful. You paint a pretty picture.
