It's all about the feels.

A reminder we all need.

I was reminded this week was that riding a bike is all about feelings. Darren Markland, a doctor in Edmonton who uses Twitter to share his bike experiences tweeted this morning: 

I’m amazed how fundamentally different I feel about my commute compared to those who drive.

I was reminded that riding your bike to work feels like happiness. Getting on a new bike for the first time feels like excitement. Riding in a protected bike lane feels like comfort. Smelling the coloured leaves feels like fall. Bikes are about feelings. All the good ones. Thanks for the reminder, Darren!
