Away From The Sunrise…

RTR

In the early morning of last sunday, I stepped out of my house before the sun had risen. I walked up to my bike, started it and simply drove away…

I have always wanted to do a long drive on my bike and despite having owned my bike for over an year I had only traveled in the city. I love driving in sections of the city where there were smooth roads clear of traffic, enjoying the wind and the speed. But I always missed doing that bike trip.

In the week before my birthday I was determined to go on a long drive. I discussed with my friends and we decided to go on the drive on Saturday, but unfortunately I had to work on Sat and missed it. On sunday all I was thinking about was driving…

As I rode away from the city, I realized that I was traveling exactly the opposite direction of the sunrise, the kaleidoscope that is a beautiful sunrise unfolded in my rear view mirrors. I drove for three hours, the longest time and distance I have ever done on my bike.

Halfway thru I realized that this was for me a bit like meditation, my mind was clear, my heart calm and body relaxed… It was truly an holy experience…

Now I will look forward to a longer and more relaxing drive :)
