The unplanned moments on a ride are the ones you remember most and are part of what makes cycling great. They can be taking a wrong turn and finding a new, incredible road or getting caught in a thunderstorm that led to meeting an interesting, warm-hearted man or women someplace far from home.  One way to get more moments outside the box of planning is to seek out rides where you can experience new roads, trails, and places. The bike is an incredible thing that can do more than just take you places. You never know what you will find and experience.
