You look sissy!

Bicycle Drifting

This is so cool. Gals are definitely bowed over if the guys can do it in front of them.

Mind Tricks

Somehow it is the mind that is playing tricks on me. After that fatal fall in BT, it has left me scarred. With the fear of climbing slopes. It has left me bailing out the last min of my climbs.

I finally end that phobia when I decided to just do it instead of contemplating. It won me over. It's really mind over body. I need to get back to where I started off. No more fears, no more disllusion. To focus on leg power and the will to get to the top.

The Return

Someone mentioned that the hanging up of Giant really marks the end of my cycling hobby. At first, I thot so. Because, I do have a feeling for that frame. It has been with me for so long. Starting with something new felt like I need to start from point zero.

But now, I'm back. I still like the sound of churning wheels and mud. Like what I say:-

Sweat + Mud = Happiness

Hung Up

It's finally over.

The Concepts

In cycling there is no outer skin of metal to protect you from the elements. You have only your filmsy clothing, and this makes it a sport that is as sensuous as it is severe. The cyclist experiences great beauty, sublime views, and the swooping exhilartion of a mountain descent, but there's a penalty on the body for cycling, too, a physical toll in exchange for the beauty of the trip that reminds riders that they're human (Armstrong, 2003, p.211).

I can't agree more. This is what makes me hooked to this two-wheel human powered machine.

The Aftermath

The consequence of an unprotected skin. Courtesy from biking.

Sigh!

The Weakness

I unintentionally stumbled onto this photo while looking thru' my photo collections. This hill looked daunting enuff for me to turn stiff. I managed to ride up though, with max effort.

I guess my weakness in biking is all about climbs. It won't fail to leave me half dead and in most trips, it is usually the climbs that kill me or taken half my energy off. Especially those continuous climbs without an end in front of me. If one thing that I would like to improve, it would be that kindda endurance to sustain me up every gradient route.

Wild Spirited

I wish I can be so wild spirited again. No cares in this world, and nothing can stop me from realizing my dreams. I wish I can be so carefree like before, like nothing in the world that would pull me down. To be truely at peace and to be really happy. And breathe the air of nature once again.

I feel caged if I can't wander around. I wish this phase will quickly pass and I can finally have the freedom of just being me.

I am a happy person when I get my regular dose of adventure.

This Is The Way

I want you to be.
