Riding into the Wind

Monday is coffee ride day. We all leave from different parts of town and meet up for coffee. The wind was howling yesterday. All of the surf in the picture is wind generated. It measure 20mph with gusts of 30mph. My route took me directly into the wind. Because I was in no hurry and had no agenda my ride was easy. I did not push through the wind I simply put enough into the pedals to move forward.

I find often that I'm trying to push through the wind in life. Yesterday taught me a good lesson. Relax, enjoy it and take what it gives.

The ride home was quite different. I barely pedaled.

It's a good life...
