The tolling of the iron bell ,

To hear the softly spoken magic spells"”

I'm thinking the sermon will be "Across the universe" and the hymns will be the complete Beatles collection.

Namaste!

I've been looking for a church home. Bike church sounds like the place for me.

I hope not but I'm sending it to him in a pm anyway.

Good Idea. My bike church offers communion in the form of Five Hour Energy and Dried Fruit.

Hallelujah!

The great thing about Bike Church is it's all yours. My holy sacraments yesterday were chocolate almond butter sandwich and a gallon of water.

Seriously though I do find my longer rides to be much more cathartic than any church I ever went to. There is no problem in life that can not be worked out from atop a bike.

Maybe. I still like to do my thinking when I don't feel my heart exploding, but to each his own.
