I struggled with writing this post because it's not positive, but life currently is difficult for many and voicing and admitting that can be a step in the right direction.anniebikeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02737989268380822651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050916568736413860.post-66733309800514933472021-08-18T07:56:58.155-04:002021-08-18T07:56:58.155-04:00I think I can relate.

Whatever you decide on for your vacation in September I'm positive you'll be able to make it meaningful and leave it feeling rejuvenated with a brighter outlook on things to come.

Can you put the bike on a train and cycle some and use the train. Sometimes you dont have to go too far afield for an adventure as getting away is an adventure itself. Good luck with the planning and fingers crossed you get away.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01047342243577979820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3050916568736413860.post-86809669257849522021-08-09T12:31:51.802-04:002021-08-09T12:31:51.802-04:00Exactly as you feel Annie!

Basically angry at those who continue to not get the vax that has the capability of stopping this dastardly virus. Do what you can and try to do some local riding that will help lift your soul. That is about what I am doing as well. We are all so very weary of it all.

I think many of us can relate. It's...Oh, Annie! I think many of us can relate. It's been a rough, rough year and a half (at least for those of us who've done our best to follow guidelines). It is exhausting and it can feel like getting away is impossible as things change by the day. I know I've gone back to wearing masks in stores with lots of people -- not because I haven't been vaccinated, but because there still seems to be a lot of unknown possibilities still lurking at this point in time.<br /><br />I hope you are able to go somewhere (even if it isn't exactly what you hope for right now) that can help reset your mind and allow you a little freedom to roam. September isn't far away at all and I'm hopeful that you'll get to enjoy some pedaling time in a place a little farther away from home.G.E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02748009691282638366noreply@blogger.com
