Thank you Bicycle

Posted on

As I sit here in the shop, I realize my life as it currently is, my job and personal life, which I am very grateful for, is a direct result of riding bicycles. I would not be here now, living and riding daily in Fruita, working at OTE, if I didn't ride a bicycle.

The people I get to call friends, the amazingly interesting and cool people I meet and get to talk to and get to know, I would never have met them if I didn't ride. Riding a bicycle gave me the opportunity to meet people who have changed and influenced my life, and has given me experiences that have shaped me and made me who I am today. I have seen some incredible scenery, from surrealistic rock formations to postcard worthy mountain views, that I never would have seen had I not been on my bike. If I list the top 10 moments in my life, nine of them would be attributed to my bicycle.

I love my bicycle, and thank it daily for all it's given me.

Think of the people you know, the places you've been and experiences you've had as a result of riding a bike. Think of the person you are now, and how your bicycle has been a part of making you that person. Pretty worth it, isn't it? Go right now and thank your bicycle.
