"Let me tell you what I think about bicycling. I think it has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. It gives women a feeling of freedom and self-reliance. I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel.. the picture of free, untrammeled womanhood." ~ Susan B. Anthony

About four months
have gone by....since we moved to Vietnam.
I ran out of picture space on my other blog. Most of my readers are cyclists, and most are happy people. I used to be happy. I used to treasure every moment. But, I am so sad these days, it is really hard to look back on that time.
I miss my friends so much. I miss my best friend, I miss the riding, I miss the racing, I miss everythign my life had in it in Taiwan. Now I am in Vietnam, I finally understand I can't duplicate Taiwan. I can't ride the way I want to, certainly do not have the close friends I had though I probably know more English speaking people here then before.
I got myself involved immediately. That was smart! But, I work alone. I ride alone, or with guys..... yet again.
My heart broke when I left Taiwan last month. After nearly 2 weeks of being gone, I am not sure it has mended in the least. I wonder if it will, or if I will be in this sadness forever. It feels so lonely.
