A nice saying about cycling

Coincidentally, being at my local bike shop I noticed a beer coaster (no beer though ;-). With a nice saying: "Happiness is a good bike and a good pair of legs."

What I like about cycling is that you really don't need all the bells and whistles / money to have fun. Cycling is for all to enjoy.

KISS: Keep It Simple and ride with a Smile

OP. What wonderful words. Thanks for sharing.

Whistles are verboten where I live, but I agree with the general sentiment.

Clear your handlebars and your mind will follow.

I moved my cycle computers down onto the 30 degree angled stems of my bikes, so that I could wrap the touring bars all the way to the stem clamp. The purpose was to have every possible riding position the bar offers.

The accidental benefit is that I basically never see the cycle computer while I’m riding, only when I’m done or at a stopping point! 👍
