My First 1000 Miles

My First 1000 Miles
JULY 31, 2024
As a guy who sits and types for a living, and being an aging guy who sits and types for a living, I have to make a real effort to get off my butt. To that end, I got myself an electric bike two years ago. The goal was to not be bored by riding the same few miles and instead with the pedal assist, open up my personal range to dozens of miles at a time. I have so many trails and amazing bike paths to ride and so many different options where I'm never on a road and in danger of car traffic that races by.

Audiobooks, blinkist book summaries, and honestly long conversations with ChatGPT are my companions and its my almost daily hour of Zen. Electric bikes are such a joy and eleviate the monotony of short bike rides and let you unlock beautiful rides.
I recently got to ride through just some of the trails in Bentonville, Arkansas and it might be my favorite thing in the world that I'm lucky enough to do. More on that soon.
