Goodbye and Hello
What is so important about bikes that I even dedicated to write something about it?
I love biking even though it doesn’t love me. Right from my first “free-fall” in a ditch, I have always been fascinated with biking. Whether it is because my foot itches all the time to take the road less traveled or well beaten, or because I really wanted to see the horizon ahead, my curiosity for reaching where the road ends is endless, I suppose.
I like biking. Even if the adrenaline rush is different from racing (even videogames), there is still a slight rush that you can feel. Or you could just leisurely stroll and enjoy the scenery, it’s not as boring as you can think, as long as you know how to appreciate nature even at it’s ugliest state because of so-called progress.
I adore my bike, and even though it has been one of my treasures, I have to say there will always be a limit for its usage. And even though it is still dependable, it can’t bring me beyond the next stage of my journey. Besides, the 20 inch tires make me looks dorky, the entire bike is a little bit small for the long, arduous trail that I have planned to conquer – if I can.
I definitely have to lose the beer belly and biking could probably help me get into shape, so I planned to build a bigger one, adequate for my need. For now, I do not need those fancy rides I see at forums and hobbyists’ sites. Anything with good wheels and a strong frame will do.
My old Decathlon Rockrider is a good one, but I think the wheel sets won’t be able to withstand the harsh conditions that I plan to do with the bike. Too keep the story short, I am changing bikes because I am trying something different, and changes means saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new.
