I guess Mr. Thoreau had friends like mine. I get questioned on a daily basis about my upcoming trip; “Who is going with you?”
When I tell people I am going alone, the reaction is almost certainly the same each time. I am looked at as a crazy person. People cannot fathom being on their own. Personally, I find serenity in solitude. Sometimes the best way to learn who you are as a person is to leave all of what made you behind.
I feel like if I would wait for my friends to be ready and willing to put their lives on pause, I will never take the trip I have wanted to for so very long. Don’t hesitate to to just get out and ride.
Rubber side down.
