I love mountain biking. There’s something about it that’s so different from the other things I do in my life. It’s playing. And while some days I feel like playing is ALL I get accomplished, this playing is for me. Just for me.
I don’t have to be the prince or the castle guard or the blue man in Candy Land or the undesirable animal on the farm that no one else wants to be.
