I have a lot of favorite things below are some I feel work together

1. Is hanging out with my wife and solving all or some of the worlds problems or at least talking about them.

2. Is " Secret Men’s Business"  I have been involved with different Male health and wellness organizations for over 15 years, I have experienced amazing changes in my life and continue to be inspired in the changes I see in other men and the positive effect we Men are having on and in our relationships and the planet.

3. Riding is another of my favorite things I have always loved being on a bike mostly on my own (I thought those peloton riders where a bunch of tosses), however since joining the "Ride From Youth" crew (a bunch of riders who get withdrawals after the "Ride for Youth" finishes and need to keep socializing and riding) I have been both surprised at how much I enjoy riding in a group and how a few of my Judgments have disappeared.

What the 'Ride for Youth' as given me so far is.

A way of combining all of the above, I get to become part of the solution not the problem (enough with the talking I want action), I get to ride my bike and I also get the opportunity to possibly help some of our male youth grow into a healthy happy men.
