Day #297 Addictive

PEI
Trail
2003
275 km

This is the Confederation Trail, PEI.
You can see why cycling is addictive.
The wind in your hair, on your face and in the treetops is addictive.
Pushing yourself and the pedals until you feel you can go no further, and then the feeling of pain lessening as your second wind hits is addictive.
The rushing colours, and the rushing trail beneath your wheels is addictive.
The aloneness with nature, your bike and your self.
The feel of spandex, handle bar grips, and even the dirt and stones you bump over.
Muscles pushing, pulling, tightening, aching!
Lunches in the long grasses at the side of a trail.
Birdsong, bushes, browns, greens, wind, water, wildflowers, wildlife, warmth from the sun, trees high above you, your beating heart, hope, peace, love - it's all there for you to experience and enjoy as you cycle, alone or with a friend.
Happiest Trails to You!
