Perpetual Wanderer

Ah, the life of a perpetual wanderer or, as I like to call it, my usual gig. You see, there’s something almost poetic about the routine – across the tracks, over the bridge, and then, like a magician’s grand finale, poof! Out of town. Each journey starts with that first step, or in my case, a steadfast pedal, since my bicycle and I have become quite the inseparable duo on these expeditions.

This isn’t just about covering distances; it’s about the stories that unfold between the start and end points. Like that time a squirrel decided it was a prime moment to play chicken as I was zooming down the trail. Or the unexpected detour that led me to the most quaint little café I’ve ever stumbled upon, serving what I now swear is the elixir of life disguised as coffee.

It’s these moments, these snippets of adventure, that make each trip more than just a route but a collection of experiences. Sure, to the untrained eye, it might seem like I’m just circling around aimlessly, but for those in the know, each ride is an epic saga. So, here’s to the tracks, the bridges, and the ever-alluring beyond. May the road be ever in our favor!
