Wormwood
Is right behind you
Throughout my 30+ riding years I have experienced a growing recognition of a certain feeling. I can not express it well other than a feeling of discomfort with a pull on the logic strings. Something does not feel right.
Historically it has been a spur of the moment "nope not today" response. Go with the gut based on past experience of shitty rides and/or mishaps when the feeling was ignored.
Fast forward to today. My gut fired up after Joe Mo was killed. went for 1 ride after the accident. Since then Oakland Lion went down and my bike has been parked and covered. Several times I have gotten the urge only to be defeated by the gut. It is saying take a break. It is not fear as I know what that feels like. My mind is saying this will pass as it has before but JFC it is taking some time.
WTF is this?
Do you feel it?
Do you listen to it?
Do you wrestle with it or let it guide you?
Is wormy crazy?
