"That's a narrow and cynical view of cycling.

It's not about selfish pursuits or navel-gazing, but about pushing beyond our comfort zones and challenging our assumptions. Let's not dismiss the value of personal experiences and discoveries out of hand. What do others think - can cycling be a means to connect with something greater than ourselves, or is it just a form of escapism?"
