Lately I've enjoyed to riding on the streets again. The physical exercise. Riding, that means using my full energy to circle the chain. Step by step, biking the bike. Re-discover the streets and routes. The minimum speed to moving forward by two wheels. To observe the alleys and lanes of the city by sitting on the high seat.
If I lift up my head a bit then I can see the people doing their households inside the wall. There is a playoff series - Dallas Mavericks v.s. Phoenix Suns playing on the TV, I wish the long-hairy Stevie can be able to win the game. There are some flowers blossoming in the garden; the orchid and the morning glory have a competition about the hue and the fragrance. The white, the yellow, the pink, the orange, the red and the purple are showing off their pureness in the spectrum, yet I can't wait all the flowers blossoming out; I can merely miss the scent after I slide with my bike quietly.
I usually move away with my iPod. That's double joys while biking. The picture of the streets become a non-stop music video when I athletically follow the groove with music and biking. I've seen a red bee paused on a tire of a bus, I don't know she is alive or not, after the green light buzzing. Perhaps she finally completed her struggle life in finding the honey. Sometimes I 'cross-over' the tar and the pavement in a journey, moving like the trendy term, meanwhile, it makes me feel I'm really 'in' this society.
Although I always feel gloomy to situate in the city, but it ain't bad to have a chilly mood occasionally. Maybe it can help me cure of my lazy heart in the end. Meantime, I find the common things are different due to the diverse angle to observe it. Some shops and corners are more interesting while I passing by. At the day times, I can value the interior of the ice cream shop that matches with its flavor or no; during the nights, I can find night snack shops to one kilometer far away outside of my house. Because of the limitless and flexibility of bicycle, I can pass by the traffic light and let the cab driver glances me the jealous sight, that gives me the finest high. When the wind blows under the sunshine while I biking, I can sense my friend's saying:
"You look like riding on the youth!"
Yeah, the youth; probably the thing I want to chase after that is the forever youth.
最近開始重拾騎車的樂趣。真正的身體力行；騎乘，使用體

最近開始重拾騎車的樂趣。真正的身體力行；騎乘，使用體
稍稍抬頭可以看見圍牆內的人家舉動。電視裡撥的小牛對太
通常會搭配iPod隨身移動。那是種樂趣的雙重加倍。配
雖說這城市總是烏煙瘴氣著，但能夠以悠閒的態度融合總是
“騎車真是青春啊～！”
是的，青春。也許我從來想要追逐的就是青春吧。
