Your Story: The desert heat would kill a lesser man

With the red-man vs white-man vs national monuments rant out of my system, please let me introduce you to Diane, one of the most amazing women I’ve had the privilege to meet. Diane works the gate of the Chiricahua National Monument, welcoming guests, providing maps and generally putting a smile on the face of each visitor. Upon my arrival, she even apologized for having to charge me, a cyclist, the $5 park entry fee on top of the $12 camping fee. We chatted for a few minutes then I made my way to the campground but not before I confirmed that she would working the following day.

The next day–having made the climb to the Massai summit and being utterly blown away by the majesty of those rock formations–I made my way back to the entry gate to chat with my new friend. We spoke about my travels, my experiences on the road and my route, both for the day and the coming weeks.

But what I really wanted to talk about was the time she road her bike across the United States.

Now, let’s compare; I’m a fairly young, male, experienced cyclist riding a high-end touring bike along with a cell-phone, net-book and friends within the cycling community. I’m also a bicycle mechanic, meaning I can remedy just about any mechanical issue that might occur on the road. Diane had none of these and, as a woman traveling alone, had to be aware of other possible threats to her safety.

While those rock formations and vistas were incredible, her achievement impressed me even more so. She impressed me not only because she completed that monstrous ride but by the casual matter-of-fact way in which she told me the story.

So, for anyone who has both dreams and excuses for not fulfilling them, I ask you to consider what my friend Diane accomplished. Oh yes, did I mention she did this 12 years ago, when she was 55 and intends on doing it again once she gets her knees taken care of?

Right, now go live your life, realise your dreams and remember, age is just a number, not an attitude.
