now I've said too much

Inspired by the Pedal Pittsburgh ride last weekend I did with rob and chrisamaphone

Losing My Momentum, with apologies to R.E.M.

Oh bike, my wheels
Friction is low
and I keep rolling
The lengths that I will go to
To not be forced to stop
Oh no, I've braked too much
This road is rough

That's me at the corner
That's me at the stoplight
Losing my momentum
Trying to keep upright
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, these hills are rough
I haven't biked enough

I thought that I'd make the green light
I thought that I'd timed it right
I thought that I was safe to coast

Every brake squeeze
On every declination
I'm losing my potential
Trying to time the light
Cause I wanted to keep on moving
Oh no, I've braked too much
Track stands are tough

That's me at the corner
That's me at the stoplight
Losing my momentum
Trying to keep upright
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no, these hills are rough
I haven't biked enough
