This helps me transcend the traffic, ignore the clamorings of work, leave all the mind theaters behind and focus on nature instead. I still must abide by the rules of the road, of biking, of gravity. But I am mentally far away from civilization. The world is breaking someone else's heart.

The problem is due to what the business community wants, which is to make as much money as they can out of what other people do and pay as little as possible for it.
Robert Wyatt
