Yo, picture this: Ross and I, armed with bikes and the unshakeable delusion that today would be EPIC (read: conquer-all-the-hills, wind-in-our-hair, picture-perfect kind of epic). Montana rolled out its golden carpet, sun beaming and wind doing its best Beyonce impression (fierce, unpredictable). Scenery? Forget about it, Mother Nature was flexing hard.
Now, every hero’s journey needs a plot twist, right? Ours arrived in the form of Ross’s tire performing a dramatic interpretive dance… with gravity. Yeah, a flat tire was about as welcome as a surprise tax audit. There we were, surrounded by majestic views, suddenly playing roadside pit crew.
But hey, these unplanned pit stops are the secret sauce of adventure, right? While Ross channeled his inner Formula 1 pit stop magician (seriously, dude was possessed by tire-changing skills), I took a moment to truly soak it all in. Funny how a flat tire forces you to hit the brakes and appreciate the beauty you might’ve whizzed past.
In the end, the flat was just a blip on what turned out to be an awesome day. It’s a reminder that adventure ain’t just about reaching the finish line or conquering hills like a boss. It’s about the journey, the laughs (even at your buddy’s tire woes), and yeah, even the unexpected detours. Cheers to more adventures, Ross, flat tires and all!
