Going to the mountain was always something that I would get excited about. It meant escaping from my ‘normal’ to a fantasyland. I think when you adhere to a routine, as cyclists do, you become a bit ‘numb’ to the world around you: sleep, train, work, repeat. The high country breaks that cycle for me because everything is different. The senses are all awake and because you notice everything it seems like it is all amplified. It’s the perfect way to wake up the soul. -Erin Ferguson #pedla
