I tell folks I love people but just can't stand too many for too long or at one time. Most haven't a clue.
Happy biking - I used to run long distances on trails but as age kicks in (along with a hip replacement from all the running), I like secluded walks.
Yes, I understand completely. I don’t get lonely. I don’t dislike most people but I’m comfortable with my own company. I have my dogs and my bikes and enjoy time alone or with them. I don’t run either. At 62 my knees are still good and I want to keep them that way. Running makes my back hurt. I walk and ride the bike. You should think about cycling. Mountain biking is nice because you don’t have to fight traffic, etc. and mountain bikers are normally friendly, nature loving people, not snobs. It’s peaceful and very easy on the joints. There are trails like my local trail that are off-road gravel nature trails though the woods but aren’t difficult. When I ride that one I see a few other riders and most are my age or older. It’s almost 10 miles round trip and very relaxing. Cycling trails are popping up everywhere. Our is a local train track that was turned into a cycling trail. Think about it!
