SEPARATION OF BIKE AND STATE

December 23, 2019 • TODD BROWN


IT'S IN THE CONSTITUTION SOMEWHERE, or it oughta be.

Jefferson clearly wrote:

“Believing with you that bike riding is a matter which lies solely between Man & his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, & not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of bike riding, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between bike & State.” 

"the free exercise thereof"... 

... the key to such free exercise, in my experience, lies in the hour a man, woman or child is willing to rise...

... which reminds me of what fun I've been having annoying my college girl.  Such a sleepy head. 

She made a good point today, though I doubt the schooling had any baring on the observation:

Dad, you live to annoy me.

Yes, yes it does bring me great joy.  Especially since my ride was rained out this morning.

Which basically means, I'm keeping you alive.

---

She's partly right, but what really keeps me a live is feeling fast and riding fast.

And when you're riding fast it's wonderful to have the very tactile feel of our superlight race gloves

To give ya a little inspiration, use promo code FEELFAST and when you buy the t-shirt you'll save 25% on the gloves.

Both the gloves and the t's come in lots of colors.
