I was just out, riding my bike, because riding a bike is fun. If you sit back and consider it (or try to explain it to an alien), the fact that there are so many people taking cycling so seriously, training their balls off, never taking a photo/piss/beer break, just to be maybe, slightly better than average, seems a little strange. You don't see people at the driving range at 04:30 in the morning, religiously moering 100 balls before work every morning and a 500 on the weekend, only to try to come mid pack at a regional paid-for tournament. You mean there are people that DON'T ride for fun? I wouldn't even know how to do that. peetwindhoek and MTBeer 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ouzo Posted January 26, 2022 Share Apparently I was cycling in my sleep last night. My wife tells me I do that when I'm having a deep sleep, last night I slept the best I've slept in a looong time, so it must have been a lekker ride. Pity its not on Strava. So this morning I decided not to get up early and ride, just lay there enjoying the feeling of being rested.
