rewilding #111 race to nowhere

Yesterday I leisurely rode about 20 miles on beautiful gravel roads that led to some single track where all the mountain bikers cursed me for riding the loop uphill. They seem to like going really fast downhill and I like to go really slow uphill. 

As I was enjoying taking my sweet time, my mind stumbled into a memory of a question I got asked on the regular in Kansas: Where do you go to church? I don’t get that question in Colorado. What I do get asked is: What race are you training for? This made me giggle for a good long time. 

I am actively participating in a race to nowhere.
