About Me

I'm a bicycle rider. More to the truth I train on the bike to stay fit as I get older. I train to fight off the age. Diebedes, high blood pressure, trigeminal neuralgia, unwanted weight and the problems from that to. There is a host of other age related fun to. I let myself put on 110 pounds over about the last 12 years. Then the body just had enough. I was falling apart. So I started doing the only thing I knew how to do. Train on the bike. I was a competitive Cyclist from 1979 to about 1992. I gave it all up. Bad choice. In the end I would have been far better off on the bike. Oh well. The lessons continue. That's really the truth of it. The lessons continue. Everyday, every moment. Everything is connected all the time. Well, that's how I see the Universe for me. How you see it, is your business. Ah freedom of thought. I got married to a wonderful woman March 21st 2007. The love of my life. It's true! It took all these 58 years to get ready to love this one beautiful woman. A writer of poems. A writer of pros. So many people know her already.

Sunday Prayers


It was not the everyday Sunday. Not at all. The roads were full of the true believers. Bright, not quiet Winter blue sky. Chill to the bone, dry and cold. Just a slight wind out of the North. As if to blow us all along our training path. Hard work and smart work. The training never ends. We move along the roads to the next hill to climb. The next freezing down hill after the heater going up the hill. Hours on hour. We are all doing the hours. It is joy to breathe the air and have the air to breathe. Our luck, last another ride. Another prayer along the road. Pure passion is the time over the bike. Luck that we can do our dreams. Live these dreams while we can. Time has a start, and a finish for the body. Never put off what makes you live. The clock is ticking. We ride and live with the Reaper. Our time is a gift. Use it well. We ride with the Reaper.
