A Simple, Life-Saving Machine

Cycling has changed my life.

Cycling helps me focus when I'm distracted, it tires me out when I have too much energy, it calms me down when I'm stressed, to clears my head when it's feeling cluttered, it even gives me energy when I have none.

Because of cycling, I've maintained a healthy body and spirit which is extremely contrary to the lifestyle I was living for a solid 4 years prior to my cycling discovery.

That isn't to say I didn't enjoy and create life-long memories during those 4 years, but looking back on pictures and videos captured during those times, I feel so embarrassed! What was I thinking? How did I have such a beautiful girlfriend?? Haha. But all those events are in the past and I'm still very thankful for them.

This is my current bicycle. Her name is Regina... as in Spektor. Together, we ride approximately 60 miles a week. She is my savior.
