MY BEEF WITH GRAVEL BIKES
GRABBED MY "GRAVEL" BIKE THIS MORNING. The only objective was to get to the cafe for some sipping time and take a breather from the rush of holidayness. Why that bike?...
... I wanted an adventure.
And, I got one.
Yeah, dirt and single track and pavement with no preset route...
... but, the best was the lovely gentleman I encountered whilst sipping outside.
Do you ride much?
Oh, yes, as often as I can.
Will you be around here Saturday?
Probably.
We'll be performing a Dixieland Christmas Concert over at the museum (downtown San Juan Capistrano).
Sounds wonderful.
By the way, you look strong. Could you help me out?
Sure.
We need to put up the tents today.
On the way to the museum to set up the tents, he pulled out a painting his great granddaughter had made for him, knowing how much he also likes to ride...
... with a perfect quote.
If there is a fork in the road, take it!"

And, well, honestly this is my beef with "gravel bikes"...
... nobody wakes up wishing for gravel.
We want an adventure.
Let it be known that from this day forth all road bikes with fat tires shall hitherto be referred to as Adventure Bikes.
