Life lessons from the seat of a bicycle

 Sharing a few of my latest tweets for today's post:

_What can a bicycle do for you, besides help you get fit? It can fine tune your sense of awareness. That's huge. #whyride

_What else can a bicycle do for you? It can build inner strength. What you see outside translates internally. #whyride #personalgrowth 

_Riding a bicycle makes you take personal responsibility. It reminds you that you are in charge of your actions. #whyride #personalgrowth

_Giving yourself this quiet time on the bicycle is time for thoughtful introspection about the challenges of the day. #whyridealone

The bike ride is really about giving yourself that quiet time to reflect, to learn more about yourself from the person who knows you the best--you. If you don't ride, what would you--or do you already--do in place of that? Some people I know run, others knit. Still others paint. Share some of your life lessons.
