13k just to play. 
You go boy.🤑 I don dare add up all my costs for biking. Hell I had a $900 pair of boots made just to match a bike. Does that count? I’m embracing my insanity.

Yes sir it is clearly something a lot of us suffer with, but I'm determined to do as much as I can as long as I can.13k just to play.

I’ve spent as much as ever in the last year on bikes and boots. I don’t know how many more years of health and lust for life that I have so now is the time to enjoy. I see your enjoying life too.

Occasionally I'll look back and reflect but generally I am happy to keep making new memories . I'm in agreement that health isn't guaranteed and putting off your dreams isn't for me.

Actually a decline in health is guaranteed.

Yes my average on the bikes in Idaho is about 7 to 10K miles a year but speed over four to five bikes so my touring bike gets bit more miles per year.

I had 4 at a time years ago. Prefer one now.
