^^^this fits me down to a tee^^^,
Plus i have always loved the aspect of not having to rely on anyone.I have but myself to blame, and in the end i can take all the credit for being good.... :-"
all my other hobbies/interests golf, snooker, street running, photography, magic, they all the same have that aspect as well.there pretty much the same really.trying to make yourself better rather than competing with anyone else.
i also find the concentration needed is extremly thereputic.while im concentrated on trying to nail that gap i cant be thinking about my girlfriend, or where i going find next months rent, or the fact i have to go to work in an hour.thats why i have to ride with earphones, cause i hate anyone interupting my concentration bringing me back to the real world.i come home relaxed and chilled, and i cant get mad at anything cause im to danm shattered... :-
