Nick Laparra shared a post on Instagram: "“This is the true joy in life, being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one. Being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances, complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it what I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work, the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.” — George Bernard Shaw

Reverse Steering Bike on National Geographic Brain Games
I learned how to ride a reverse steering bike, by riding it exclusively for two weeks. Here are the results. As a freestyle bmxer I had similar experience with the steering when rolling backward, so that helped. I think rather than over writing old neuro pathways my brain had to disassociate the familiar pathways with the experience, create new ones and apply them to the similar but variant conditions of the reverse steering bike. Fun. Grateful for the experience to learn to ride a all over bike again.
