    In a word....

    Yes.

    In a few words. Why wouldn't a description of the world you see as you ride move people to emotion or action? What better way to illustrate what is going on than to verbalize what you see on the ride, what you experience in the communities you ride through, and what you learn from the crazy pack of riders that are out there too?

    My cousin rides Mountain Bikes, and his tales of the hills around San Francisco (he lived in Milbrae and Redwood City) always made me wish I could ride with him.
