This picture is atop the Hope Saddle, en-route a blinding 430 kilometer solo ride. Let me tell ya, the mind plays tricks on you when you are doing that long.. but, I believe I see a bit of my friend Derek in such times.. and I see a bit of everyone that hopes, dreams and gets through the best and the worst of times with a smile on their face. Its about hoping and dreaming, at the end of the day.
