On days like that, my very favorite thing to do is go home and curl up and watch a cycling movie. For pure inspiration, I love to watch La Course en Tete: The Eddy Merckx Story. Would Merckx sniffle as he pushed his bike the last couple miles through a Montana winter? He would not. I can feel my heart lifting already. For beautiful scenery and touring motivation I love to watch Ride the Divide. Thinking about those wide open spaces and remote backroads makes me feel exhilarated. Tomorrow is a new day and summertime is just around the corner.
