(via jamesnord): Life isn’t all that different from cycling really. When the road tips up you have two choices: sit back and let it hurt you or attack it, and when you think about it, that’s not really much of a choice at all. 

Personally, I prefer to put myself in a low gear, ignore the fact that I have to climb a massive hill, and try to chill but, you know, that doesn’t really work as well as a metaphor for life.
