Reader mail: This made my day

I got a nice email today, the kind that validates the Mission (with a capital M).

Hey Lee,

Listen I just want to let you know how much I appreciate you writing the book with Brian Lopes and sharing everything you do on your site. Your riding tips are indespensible and the insights you’ve given me on life, marriage and riding have been priceless.

Reading about what you’ve personally been through recently has really helped me to formulate my feelings about riding to my wife. There is really too much to say to go into detail, but I just finished a lengthy email to her that I hope explains my passion for cycling and will help us become closer as a couple and as new parents.

Thank you!
