Last Tuesday Jeff Frame and I went on what we like to call an Epic ride. Now Epic is defined as "noting or pertaining to a long poetic composition, usually centered upon a hero, in which a series of great achievements or events is narrated in elevated style
2. resembling or suggesting such poetry: an epic novel on the founding of the country.
3. heroic; majestic; impressively great: the epic events of the war.
4. of unusually great size or extent: a crime wave of epic proportions.
As you can see it involves something long, heroic and great. For us it was a 6 hour 58 mile mountain bike ride through Brown County State park into Hoosier National Forest and back through Brown County State Park again. There were crashes, endo's, flat tires and lots of eating, sweating, pain and rehydrating. We even wore the lube off our chains had to borrow some WD40 from a park employee on our way back! Here's a little video or two for ya!
And can I just say that my desire for a great Epic ride stems from something deep within all of us. It comes from our original purpose of being united with our Creator in a deeply adventurous relationship.
Following The Way,
