You live your own life and it becomes so normal to you. Sometimes I really consider my situation and it makes me shake my head a little bit.

This blog post isn’t about money or about a vertical kilometer climbed, it’s about a milestone that’s taken me almost five years to reach.

Sometimes it can feel like an uphill battle but this week was just about traveling uphill, there was no battle. In fact, it was an enjoyable cruise up many meters of incline throughout the week on both my bike and my legs. There was no struggle or battle this week, which is a welcome scenario …
