Good Company

As with many things we do, and experience in life, the happenings are much richer and rewarding when friends and/or family are along.

Such was the case on this, and almost every Tuesday ride that I (Shane) take, as Zane has made it a regular habit of joining me. Being able to share and hopefully grow a passion with those that we love and care about, whether that is a spouse, child, or friend, brings a tremendous amount of joy and enrichment to our own experiences and is a “passing of the torch” in many ways.

Enjoying cycling, whether on gravel, mountain bike or road bike, serves to satisfy several of our inherent needs: 1) Physical Activity, 2) A sense of community, 3) Enjoyment of the outdoors.

To me, bikepacking is the pinnacle of these things, and I hope that others I know and love take that road (or trail) and join me someday…

Ride on!
