Do what you love doing, life is short & unpredictable.
Last week I lost a friend who loves the sun baking the back, the wind in the face, the burn in the legs & lungs while chasing the peloton.
She was all jolly, eating & singing the night before, less than 24 hours later, actually bit more than 12 hours, she left us.
Susanah Sing Mei Ng, I called you babayaga because you’re full of determination & strive to go further & faster with endless energy. You’ve made it to many start line & earn being a fierce rider.
We shall meet over the rainbow one day. Till then, you & your family are in my prayers.
