Man, I love what TroutBum wrote recently - about riding very early mornings so as not to miss out on time with his late rising kids.
I could play 18 holes of golf and be home while my kids were still in their jammies on weekends.
Yep, 2.5 hours .....the starter knew me and would let me pay when I finished the 18th hole. Frequently the mowers were still on the greens, and would park until I hit up. If it was light enough to see the ball - I was out there.
Still rising early for my scooter rides. Last w/e I was home making my wife and daughter their breakfast as they came into the kitchen.....after a 45 mile round trip ride to my coffee village, a sit and a chat with the locals, and a ride home. They had no idea I'd been away.
A great side benefit to these day-break rides is the lack of traffic, and the superb sunrises. Plus it packs more life into your day. And vice versa.
When we get old, we can sleep in!
