Change is great. I was recently asked if I like the hot weather we have been getting. I like it for a little but also like the cold for a little. Variety is the spice of life as the saying goes. In contrast to change, routine can be very comforting. It is something you know, something familiar. Being primarily a mountian biker I dont shy away from the road on occasions. Every once in a while I like to go to the north part of the island. I usually ride my fixed gear bike or put slicks on my 26 inch mountain bike and hit the road. I recently went following the usual road route to what has become my first rest stop, a bagel place. Its not even a particular good bagel place but it has that comfort factor of a familiar place. Its ironic that this 'comfort' bagel place was once new and different. Thats why its important to switch it up once in a while and do something different. You never know what new things you will discover.
