Bicycle Love

Number One Biker Boy admonishes me to love my bike like I love myself, which I try to do. (With some difficulty. Sometimes I just loathe myself). I keep coming back for more. I don't know why we so easily lapse into cliches when talking about love, but one really must ride one's bike like an extension of one's self.

The riding mantra* is: My bike completes me.

So. Love me, love my bike.



*There is another riding mantra, for those who have reached a higher level of union with their bikes, which is achievable only in Sagada.
