Photo by Elle Hughes Today I went for a bike ride.
I barely pedaled at all. Just floated and glided, with ease. I remembered all of the places I have lived where I had bikes. Ames, Iowa and Boulder, Colorado in my solo adult life. Greensboro, North Carolina as a kid, teenager, and prodigal daughter over summer and in between jobs. Those are the places I thought of most. The freedom to go out and have the speed of a bicycle, versus the contemplation of a walk. The choice to bike to work, or to do a shopping trip with a backpack to bring items home. Today I did a bike ride for fitness, but it turned out that I did it to feel freedom. My mind was clearer afterward. I felt cleansed and refreshed. I barely sweated, but I didn't mind. Today I went for a bike ride.
