Thanksgiving Traditions

I love the holiday season. Being with friends and family is so important to me. One of my favorite things to do on Thanksgiving is a road ride with my friends. We have been doing it for years. So tomorrow the tradition will continue with a bonus of better then average weather. I am excited to get out with everyone.

I will ride with a heavy heart tomorrow. As I am sure my thoughts will be about my late Uncle Richard who we lost suddenly a few days ago. He was one of the first people that I rode any regular distances with. I have many great memories of camping and riding the C&O Canal with my Uncle’s and Cousins. Not to mention the countless rides at the beach with him and my Aunt Judy.

Riding has so many great memories for me. It is such a great time to catch up with friends and family while getting a work out and seeing the country side all at the same time. I hope you have a ride soon that will become one of your lasting memories in a positive way.

Here is wishing you a happy Thanksgiving that hopefully includes a ride.

About Ernest

Ernest is the owner of the Crofton Bike Doctor located in the Village of Waugh Chapel Shopping Center. Ernest has been in the industry since 1989 when he first started to work at the Bike Doctor of Arnold. During that time I developed a love for cycling and retail. I graduated from the University of Maryland and live and ride locally. I enjoy riding off road and on the road as well as doing a little bike touring. As a teenager I did a trip in Maine and then over to Novia Scotia which helped cement my love for riding. Since then I have done tours in the Canyons of Utah as well as several trips along the C&O Canal. Today I have both mountain bikes and road bikes that I enjoy riding. One of the most exciting things now is my wife is beginning to develop a passion for riding and we have begun mountain bike together as well as some light road riding.
