There was a time in my bike riding life that a consumption with total miles and average speed would have prevented me from stopping. As I've grown older, while I still track my speed and mileage, I do not let either of those things keep me from enjoying other facets of riding, such as the opportunity to look around and admire. Below are a few of my favorites.

A Mural Moment
A few Sundays back, my bike ride took me through old downtown Hampton. It had been some time since I was last in this area of town and I noticed as I slowly rode down West Queens Way that murals had been painted on several of the buildings. I was so impressed with the work, that I turned around and rode back down the street stopping to admire and take pictures.
