Why do we ride?

Eating my breaky this morning, getting ready to head out for my weekly Sunday training ride, I came across this trailer. It’s tough to understand what they’re saying some of the time, but the message overall is totally clear. They’re just talking about why they ride. The simple answer is ‘joy’. I won’t argue with that. Today is a beautiful sunny Sunday, and I can’t wait to get out there. Wherever you are in the world, I hope you’re doin’ the same.

P.S. I also have to applaud their taste in font colours :-)

Nice one!

JOY, that’s what it’s all about :)

Not sunny down here in Belgium but still it was a great day to ride (dry and moderate wind).
I’ve been following you for a couple of weeks since I’m riding the TransRockies this summer. Awesome video report you made. I hope we get a bit less rain this year :-D

keep blogging – Pascal

Nice. If there was a blog on the adventures, rants, and ramblings of Chris, a guy who likes to ride bikes – this would be the first and only post :)

@ skelle – You’re coming from Belgium to do the TR – awesome! You’re going to love it. Glad you enjoyed the videos. We had actually hoped to do more documentation, but when you’re racing it, you’re so tired from the long days on the bike that it was really hard to get much filming done. All I can say, is it will be well worth the trip over here! If you have any questions about the race, just shoot us an email.

Thanks, will do!

I’m happy with what I’ve seen from the TR so far, enough documentation to get me really enthusiastic! The beautiful details are still there to discover ourselves. So looking forward to it!
