Yesterday something was taken from me. Something that has recently brought a lot of joy into my everyday life, and a smile when ever I am with it. But now it is gone.
Yesterday my vintage single speed coaster brake cruiser was stolen from me. It was almost in mint condition, it was super fun to ride, and it made me love cycling again. It was so much fun that I made me want to get back on my road bike and it made me want to explore the cross country trails near by on my cyclocross bike. It made me love seeing the world from a bike again, something I haven't felt in two years.
That bike gave me a sense of freedom from the pain, from what happened in the past, and from the heartbreak of learning I can never race a bike again.
But now it is gone. They cut a cable lock. Then the cut a u-lock. Then they took away a part of my family.
RIP
