Blue Hour Bicycling

Days are getting warmer and longer, which means that evening bicycle rides are getting more pleasant. I enjoy picking up the mail at our mailbox which is just down the street, and then continuing on for a lazy cruise around the neighborhood. It’s fun to say hello to all the other people out enjoying their evening strolls.

It’s funny, but most people don’t wave, but almost everyone waves back. This was something that stuck with me when I read Sorry I’m Late, I Didn’t Want to Come: One Introvert’s Year of Saying Yes by Jessica Pan when she was reaching out to strangers. I also like to wave when I’m running – always to other runners, and sometimes to walkers a bicyclists. And 95% of them wave back.
