So, you love cycling. I’ve got to tell you that going to the Tuesday night discussion last night was delicious. Alan Schietzsch, president of the Alberta Bicycle Association drew us in with historical notes, shocking and heart warming stories, and personal anecdotes that made the world of racing so real for us. Although I don’t race, this evening let me into the part of that world that is core to all cycling-lovers’ reasons for riding. The personal relationships, the joy of company and of solo riding, the fun of how the bike moves and what crazy diverse ways we use those movements to have little and big adventures. Along the way, during another riveting story, Alan mentioned that “cycling is a passport” – meaning where ever we go and however we bike, there’s a common understanding of the love of cycling in other parts of the world.
This is true when you travel to race, or travel to travel. Join us next week for the Tuesday discussion on touring. Bring your stories, or sit back and soak in ours.
