THE LAST RIDE
WHAT IF IT WAS YOUR LAST RIDE, EVER? Would it matter if you knew "this is it"? Or would you mount up like any other day, ride off, smile a bunch, return, put things away. Forever?
Most of us will never know it's our final mile.
We feel certain there will be one more...
One more ride to be a little better,
to effortlessly zip up a climb,
to feel the wind and sun,
to lean into a turn,
to see a friend.
I don't think I'd want to know, I'd just like to know I'm ready... that I fully enjoyed every mile, that the ride was worthy to be my last.
