Has the system finally cracked? Have the wealthy and powerful simply taken so much leaving the rest of us grasping at our very survival, easily manipulated into turning against other groups and even each other in an attempt to make sense of it all? Is society destined to destroy itself or descend into eternal servitude to our masters? How do we get out of this spiral of madness?
Again, going on the trail was my idea of travel/meeting people… though even when I’m able* to ride I don’t see much around here. I suspect the people I’d fit with are not here, or even if they are they are at home (or just not on the trail).
* 300+ miles so far (over a few years), admittedly that’s mostly ~1-2mi trips to a bridge/bench area when I can’t plan anything better, and my most realistic trip besides that is just to a local grocery store to buy old bananas and maybe some produce to fry.
I should have been clearer that I totally think that’s the correct thing to be doing. Sorry for any confusion, I think you’re on the right track.
