A Ride for Me

In today's entry I go for a bike ride for me with no rules. Then there are three good news stories to remind you that good things are still happening in the world.

In today's entry I go for a bike ride for me with no rules. Then there are three good news stories to remind you that good things are still happening in the world.

Here's a quick update on what's going on for me today and of course stories of good things happening in the world.

Today's 200km ride was so difficult it ended early, but not for the reasons you might think. And surprisingly, ending when it did was an extremely good thing.

Todd has a really lovely weekend mix of alone time, family time and time with friends. And of course there are several good news stories here to remind you there's still good in the world.

In this entry (twice in one day!) Todd shares a video and book recommendation about one of his cycling inspirations, Jenny Graham.

Today Todd tries an experiment of sharing an article he liked here rather than social media to see how that works. Why did he like it? It talks about how the author is getting through uncertain times. It was pretty helpful!

Not so great news on the bike front. But what originally sounded like bad news gave rise to good plans.

Todd finds a workaround to ensure he is more regularly following through on bike rides just in time to have the bottom bracket of his bike fail. Fortunately there are also three good news stories to share too.

In today's entry, Todd talks about the routines and habits that are challenging for him and has a plan to improve on three different fronts.

While I was riding in the countryside outside of Toronto yesterday I passed a dairy farm and the smell of hay and manure brought back memories of growing up in Vermont. I thought about my classmate Steve for the first time in years.
