A SEASONAL LOVE

Gary Fisher...how I love Gary Fisher! At least my Gary Fisher. ..and HERE IT IS!

It is that time of year again, getting on the bike and taking my daily ride. In the spring, summer and fall, I am sure that biking is my first love. However, come winter time and my cross country skis, I am sure skiing is my first outdoor love. But as it is spring, nearly summer, I must say there is really nothing quite like mounting the bike and taking off. I can feel exhausted and just plain lousy, but after just 10 minutes on the bike, I am rejuvenated.

Now there is really nothing glamorous about biking get-ups, but amid all the sweat and headwinds, who really cares. After 15 or 20 miles in the mid-day heat, I am literally soaked, just like an hour session of Holly Parr's Zumba class...and at the end of both, I can say I feel more healthy and invigorated than at any other time of day. Great thanks to Gary and Holly!
