But more that you realize there’s a lot of people who aggressively have no regard for their fellow human beings. At least that’s how it feels to me. I still ride the road, of course, but I don’t feel the same way about it. I feel hugely less vulnerable out on trails. We have very few trails at home sadly. So I’m gorging on it while I can.
