On the Road with Thumper Jane As a Revival Biker, (A rider who has not ridden in many years, then jumped back on), I've found a new list of chores: Polish chrome Wax tank Condition chaps Ride enough to break in New Indian gloves before it's time for fingerless...etc. As a Revival Biker, I find my tire seems to have it's own mind of which road to explore. Trees seem to help with the choice. A big sky with occasional drops of Louisiana rain add to the picture. My movement through nature on a created steed functions to deliver my mind from its own parameters of boxes and rules and dos and undos. I hum in my helmet and grin at the cows. I'm in their neighborhood, viewing life from the other side. That giant slab we ride on and live on and grow on-it gave me my freedom, once again. I greeted the road yesterday, with a full tank of gas and hopes as big as Montana skies. Louisiana loved me back. I remain, forever grateful, Lulu, A Revival Biker Visit us online at: http://www.louisianabiker.com and https://facebook.com/louisianabiker/ 29
