    One of the nicest bike videos I have seen. My bike journey started about the time of yours. I am now 67 and cycling has reversed my diabetes, reduced my ptsd from vietnam and gave me a second chance at life. Thanks again.

      Same here BP was getting into high zone bordering on diabetes. Reconfigured my mountain bike to a semi cruiser and pedal 14-20 miles everyday. Some days averaging 10.5 others bump to 12-13 mph. The goal averaging 1000 calories per ride. Exercising the body as well as the mind.

    Thanks for sharing...
    Im all about taking it in at the pace life offers...
    Some times i crank it up,,, other times I slow it down...
    There's none of this """got to get it done""" when time has no meaning...
    The only time that matters on my rides is the ones in which I get too view the sights sounds and aromas around me...
    Life's views from the top of a mountain just after a heavy rain is the best...
    Who wouldn't like too stop and enjoy those Treasures...

    The mind unplugged. The mind left to drift on its own. The first 5 or 10 miles I notice how many miles I've traveled. The last 5 or 10 miles as well. But the miles in between, almost no matter how many, pass in a blur of landscape, random thoughts, and a free floating mind. Truly a wonderful experience.

    thanks for sharing your story, it's something that's relatable to me, and how cycling could be enjoyed without having to rush in and performing great, it's slowing down and enjoying the adventure, getting to new/old places, and falling in love with the process. Looking forward to more of your work.

    Love this video Dan. It’s so easy to get into that. Got to get faster go further. But. I’m only starting to get into cycling. After a few years of Tabbing. A lot around the Brecon Beacons. As much as I’m trying to get faster and further. I’ve never lost that ability. To just stop. And take in-the country side. And relax a bit. Crack on 💪💪💪💪💪

    When speed is no longer the objective is when you find the true value of cycling. Speed is fun but after a while you get tired of staring at the tarmac or your cycle computer.
