I have no doubt there are plenty of people for whom the bike is the center of their cycling interest. But for many of us the importance of the bike is in the relationships between cycling and other aspects of our lives, just as you point out. I love my bikes because of how they relate to my family, gardening, work, leisure, even my political views. Take those relationships away and the bike is kind of boring (but still fun).

I'm sad to admit that it's been a while since my last visit to Chicago Bike Blog. This blog was one of the first bike blogs I stumbled upon and began reading regularly last summer when I found myself wanting to buy a bicycle and start riding again. "What happened to July?" was a really great post to return to. I've been riding regularly for a year now, and I've found the bike, and all the many and varied things that come with riding it, in all the different ways that I do, has added a new and much-needed dimension of quality to my life. It plays out in the people I've met, the weight I've lost, the clarity I've found when riding ... and on the list goes. For this, I'm tremendously grateful.

I am so glad to hear from you again! Sometimes taking a break from the routine helps us return to it with new vigor. I am on vacation right now, with intermittent internet availability, but blog posts are brewing in my head. I look forward to resuming writing (and riding!) when I return.
