Sometimes the best rides are the ones you do alone

When I first started cycling, I always thought riding with other people was the best way to enjoy it.

Group rides are great. You learn a lot, discover new routes, and there’s always someone to push you a little harder.

But lately I’ve been enjoying solo rides more than I expected.

There’s something nice about going at your own pace, taking a random turn, stopping for a photo, or just riding without having to worry about the clock.

Still love a good group ride with the right people though.

Funny how the way you enjoy cycling changes over time.
