To be honest, I have no clue if Obama is a republican or democrat, and I don&#8217;t even know who the current Prime Minister of Canada is&#8230;.and I&#8217;m Canadian. Yeah, I&#8217;m that un-political.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://lovingthebike.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/DSC_0033.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-4474" title="Loving the Bike" src="http://lovingthebike.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/DSC_0033-1024x768.jpg" alt="" width="819" height="614" /></a></p>
<p>What I do know is that I&#8217;m just a simple guy who is totally Loving the Bike, and I don&#8217;t care to take it any deeper than that.  I love to see people speak their mind and voice their opinions, and I think it&#8217;s okay for people to favor or oppose a viewpoint&#8230;..although the world would be such a nicer place if we didn&#8217;t possess the need to criticize.</p>
<p><a href="http://lovingthebike.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/DSC_0013_3.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-4473" title="Learning to Ride a Bike" src="http://lovingthebike.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/DSC_0013_3-183x300.jpg" alt="" width="183" height="300" /></a>The first time we took off the training wheels and became part of the two wheeling community of cyclists is likely a great memory for all of us, right?  Do you think environmentalism, weight loss, or gas prices mattered to you when you first started Loving the Bike?  I&#8217;m pretty sure that Freedom and Self Achievement are what&#8217;s filling the minds of most kids who learn to ride a bike.  Why does that have to change?  Whatever your reason for Loving the Bike, I know there is at least a little piece of you who goes back to your childhood every time you jump on the saddle.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re all part of the cycling community&#8230;fellow cyclists&#8230;.people who possess our own thoughts.</p>
<p>Whether you&#8217;re Right Wing, Left Wing, or somewhere in the middle&#8230;..we are all cyclists.  While y&#8217;all take your own political stand&#8230;..I&#8217;ll be over here with my feet planted firmly in the sand.  Loving the Bike and Loving the Beach.</p>
