Recently, one of my cycling/randonneuring friends said to me, “I can’t but help to notice a lot of pictures of pastry on your Flickr site. Does your bike gravitate towards bakeries?”
I wasn’t sure what he was talking about. Was it this?
Or this?
Maybe something else?
Hey, as a cyclist and randonneur I work up an appetite. (My stomach is just starting to settle down to “normal appetite” one week after our 1000K adventure.) And I like to take pictures of the good-looking food I eat. Who doesn’t?
Just so you know, however, I don’t spend every bike ride tracking down the baked goods.
I like the produce, too! And there’s nothing like locally grown fruits and veggies. They just taste better!
In response to my friend’s original question, though, perhaps my bike and I do have a propensity toward bakeries. They give rides a purposeful destination as well as a deliciously sweet payoff for your efforts.
Hey, I heard we have to go back to work tomorrow… what?!
