Ode to 2018

 

One the verge of a new year

you may feel happy or sad

But the year will change whether we like it or not

 

To help, I’ll offer a bit of cheer

you may employ, like a launching pad

Moving you into 2018 like a big shot

 

Two rides to challenge your gear

you’ll want it to be ironclad

So your efforts won’t be for naught

 

La Mosca Bicicleta on June 30, my dear

you might feel like an Olympiad

The numbers will show a high max watt

 

On August 4th Gran Fondo: Taos, Mora, Angel Fire will appear

you can show off your form and feel rad

Beautiful scenery and great roads will be what you got

 

Mark your calendars with no fear

you will be glad

Since you will gain the fun and fitness you sought
