All I want to do is ride my bike Friday, Jan 21 2005

The little bit of warmth this morning made me want to ride right past my office. I wanted to ride until I couldnt pedal anymore. I wanted to ride to Audubon Park turn right at the dog park and take the levee all the way to NORCO. The wind, the smell and just the sheer enjoyment of riding.
A
Zen teacher once asked his students why they rode bicycles. One said he
rode to carry potatoes. Another cycled to observe the world. A third
said it cleared the mind, and a fourth said cycling put him in harmony
with all sentient beings. The Zen master was pleased, but when the
fifth replied, "I ride my bicycle to ride my bicycle," the teacher sat
at the student’s feet and said, "I am your student."
