« What does cycling do to you:
- riding alone helps you focus on you mind
- riding gives you the opportunity to travel to new unexpected places
- riding is a great outlet to hang out with others
- riding gets your body moving
- riding allows you to push your limits
- riding is available to most people
- you don’t need a fancy bike to enjoy turning the pedals
- riding gives you a sense of speed
- riding can makes you feel powerful
- riding is meditative
- riding is fun
- the wheel is the most energy effective way of transporting objects/people
- bicycles are some of the oldest ways of locomotion.

What can you take away from less pro races and more of just cycling :
- people still cycle
- cycling still bring people together even in confinement
- cycling is still for a lot of people around the world the number one vehicle
- you can still enjoy riding your bike, outside/ inside
- you still get all of the same benefits.

Cycling didn’t change after all. Will we change tho? Will we learn to appreciate more thing we use to take for granted such as:’ - getting together for rides
- smashing it at races
- feel the wind in our face while riding outdoors
- going of long adventure rides ?

I really hope so,

In this period I invite you to put the phone away and have deeper appreciation for simple things we often take for granted. Just like racing or for a lot of people riding outside, anything really could get taken away from us, it’s incredible this thing affect the entire world.

But let’s not forget a lot of people everyday get their favourite things taken away from them for many various reasons. Maybe we need to take the opportunity to be more thoughtful and thankful of the chance we have to choose our pathway through life.

Take the opportunity next time you ride to think about those things you love about riding. »
