What had he seen in the woods?
He couldn't see anything, just a strip of road ahead of him and a wall of forest around him.
I've seen the wonders of the forest.
Dew, grass, bugs, the sun, the play of shadows, cobwebs, leaves, flowers.
So I don't like stupid running. It should be combined with the contemplation of nature.
Then running is a walk and that's good.
That's an odd comparison to make. The vast majority of off-road motorcyclists spend zero time stopping to smell the flowers. The vast majority of people traveling by foot through forests see far more of the dew, grass, bugs, etc., than the majority of motorcyclists, including, I suspect, you ("I once . . . . ").
