Bicycling Haiku

Monday October 1, 2007
Climbing

There was a time, son
When hills like these were my friends.
Ford was president.

One more:

Bonking
Thirty miles remain
four dimes and stale clifbar
can I make it home?

From Eleven Gear. More terrific cycling poetry can be found here.

Add your own cycling haiku. Comment below.

I wrote some 3-5-3 Haiku on my Katy Trail trek. One of my favs:

Tread with fear
Honey Locust Pods
Thorns be near!!
