BIKER THE CLOCK
THE CLOCK
BIKER
Written by Momma Iz
The bike is packed, pre-checklist, and it's as ready as it can be for the road trip. What time are you leaving? To a cager it's 6am, the time to
beat the traffic. To a biker it's sunrise, the deer should be back in the brush.
The ride is beautiful as you ride into daylight. The scents change from city limits to country air. You arrive, grateful and thankful for a safe
ride. It's 10am to a cager, it's I got a great spot for a bike, extra time before event to grab a coffee and fold up chaps to a biker.
The event begins, you begin to mingle with those you know and get to know those you don't. Games, raffles, music, it's always a good
time. It's 4pm to a cager, to a biker it's time to check the weather unroll the chaps, and begin to say goodbye to everyone which could take an
hour.
Each goodbye is an entire conversation, you gotta go, nobody wants to ride when the deer are out and as the sun sets it get colder. After
making the rounds you look at the clock, it read's 6pm, to a cager it's getting late, time to go. To a biker it's I only have x amount of sunlight
left, the deer will be out.
You make the decision only a biker would make. You get on the bike and chase the sunset. The biker clock is your gut, it's looking at the
sky, and feeling it in your bones. It's out running clouds and chasing the Sun.
