Heading nowhere!
Heading nowhere!

If a picture tells a thousand words, you could delete 999 of them!  “Wrecked” is the only one you’d need:)

The idea was a good one – to cycle 3000 miles in a day, recalling the journey of Fr Patrick Peyton, CSC (Venerable) – The Rosary Priest – from Attymass to the United States.  It was achieved.  A room full of stationary bicycles and a room full of willing cyclists saw to that.  My contribution was limited but I was glad to be part of the day.

The Stationary Bicycle is a strange animal!  That day in Attymass put me thinking about one and a year or more later, on a total whim, I bought one.  I was excited to set it up and hit the road from my “Attymass” to New York and beyond!  Alas!  I even set it up in the bedroom that I’d have a constant reminder of how easy it would be to get in a bit of daily exercise.  My challenge now is not to hang clothes on it:)  That, without doubt, would be the final insult!

The thought for today might be something to do with having the right intention and knowing what needs to be done. It might even be about going further than knowing and getting what is needed but the harsh reality and truth lies in making use of the tools.

Exercise Bike for exercise ……

Prayer for faith ……

One pedal – one cycle at a time!

One thought on “Not a clothes horse!”
  1. Well written and as always lots to reflect on it too.
    Keep up the cycling and the praying and the writing!
