Why We ride

In three simple words: It's an escape. For a few hours, we get to forget about the stressors in our lives. We are on the bike pedaling, breathing fresh air, listening to the wind whiz by our ears as we enjoy the sites and sounds of all the places our bikes and legs take us. On this ride, a deer pranced off in front of us as the Ferns tickle our legs as we ride down the trail. A Red Headed Woodpecker flies from tree top to tree top following us down the trail. After riding out of the woods, we entered a huge meadow that you see here. The morning dew created a misty haze just above the grass line with 30-40 wild turkey scampering across the field. With all this activity going on around us and with our accelerated heart rate and breathing, we focus only on this amazing moment.
