My most sincere appeal to endurance mountain biking are the lessons in humility that come about from it. No matter how on top of your game you are, you can always be knocked down to size. Endurance cycling promotes the stripping of self-indulgent ego feeding and calls you to look inward. As a result, this introspective glimpse allows for an outpouring of everyday life applications in other facets. I cannot speak for all endurance junkies, but for me, this is what it’s all about. I ride everyday to preserve the person I was yesterday and to secure the person I hope to be tomorrow.
