EuroVelo

So that was one of the nice experiences.

I've had a bicycling experience with my wife on the Eurovelo from Basau in Germany to Vienna in Austria, and a few other cycling trips.

Every monsoon, I make sure I spend every weekend in the mountains around Nasik, which are very beautiful at that point of time.

So that's how the exploration part has been on professional side with respect to new sectors, new ventures.

And then it's sort of like w- with each thing you've done, and then finishing that, taking on an ultra, being curious enough to push yourself in a different way, and the stepping stones to getting to the start line and doing the training, and then doing another ultra, and then off-road ultras, and then all of a sudden signing up for Silk Road.

In a way, is it sort of the fact that you want to be doing stuff that is constantly extending yourself, like, like challenging yourself within that? Like, I can't see you, for example, signing up to do a EuroVelo route down the Danube River, for example.

Maybe, maybe, maybe you were wishing you were that person when you were, you know, [laughs] hiker biking, uh, you know, [laughs] endlessly with, you know, in Silk Road.

Yeah.

And again, it, it was touring and not racing, and, and that's what, that's what I love, so.

So talk about transitioning into a bike culture, right? 'Cause Europe has now y- all the EuroVelo routes, and you must have had some really fascinating exposure to, to cycling and the community and probably other cyclists.

Yeah.

I mean, a- again, Europe has such a, a cycling culture.

I, I, uh, I'm going to take my road touring bike to France because, you know, I put, like, 40 millimeter tires on it and it can handle a gravel road.

Um, just because the road system is wonderful and they, they might take some bike trails and be...

Actually, Jerry, I just learned about EuroVelo-
