So I definitely found this and stole it from another rider Emily, but I think it's pretty awesome & I wanted to share it with you. It is something called the Holstee Manifesto, which you can read the full thing in the picture below...for the purpose of this video it was turned into a cycling related one.
One of my favorites is "Open your mind, arms and heart to new things & people" & I think that's what this summer will be full of. I am setting off on a journey across the country. I know none of the people I'll be biking with except what I've seen on Facebook & one or two I'll hopefully meet before orientation. But this summer I'll have a chance to not only meet all sorts of like-minded people who are participating in B & B, but also all those we come in contact with while biking, those we build with, those kind enough to give us shelter & those we stop & buy food from along the way. (It's estimated we'll burn 7000-8000 calories on an average day! Yikes!)
One last note: sadly, no bike ride today. It was storming this morning when I woke up. It finally cleared, but I walked outside and nearly fell over the wind was so strong. I figured I better call it a day. : /
