There are few things as elegant as the quiet mechanical music of a
freshly tuned road bike on a smooth, deserted country road, on a 68F
early spring afternoon.

I'm thinking I'll be able to start riding to work next week. Tomorrow
the bike comes out of the shed and gets its tuneup.

There's something about riding the trail along the river, stopping to
watch the birds at the weir, or the crocuses poking through the last of
the snow, the ground squirrels poking their heads out looking for that
elusive spring greenery...

Bliss.
