Just ran across a very cool YT channel.....here's the opening remarks:
Take the back road. Ride a little slower than you need to. Let someone pass – then wave like you meant it. Stop at that overlook you always ignore. Ride into a town you can’t pronounce. Get gas from a pump with no card reader. Talk to the old guy on the porch. Order black coffee even if it’s burnt. Don’t check the time – check the weather, the wind, the way the gravel road curves. Let the bike feel alive, not perfect. You don’t need more horsepower to go farther – just more time and fewer expectations. Ride something that makes you smile when it shouldn’t. Ride because you can. Ride because it matters. Ride your own ride.
