All right...Those of you who speak Spanish might hate the title of this post. But what else was I going to call it? A Fifth of Bloghoven?
Anyway, I am not going to deal with any weighty, serious issues (as if I ever did on this blog!). Instead, I'm going to celebrate, and hope you join me.
You see, it was five years ago today that I wrote my very first post on this blog. At that time, I had been writing my other blog, Transowman Time, for nearly two years. I had just started riding again after a layoff of several months following my surgery.
A reader of TT suggested that I start a cycling blog. Midlife Cycling labored in the shadows of Transwoman Times before taking on a life of its own. Actually, I very quickly found that I enjoyed writing a blog about my Journey and journeys as a cyclist and found myself putting more and more of my energy into it.
Anyway, here I am, and here you are, dear reader, 1456 posts later. I hope that you are enjoying this ride with me, and that we continue it for a long time.
Somehow this image--which represents the freedom cycling offers us--seems apt for my celebration of cycling and what it's given me:
