I live off a paved trail, 30 min 8 mi bike ride nearly everyday around for 1-2pm after lunch, fast, no bonk, gives me a mental reset and helps me rescue from any work tangents.

Being in nature is great, we screw ourselves over so much by not orienting around bike path accessibility, they take very little space in the grand scheme and enables population improvement in glocuse tolerance and cognitive function, fortunately for all of Austin's faults they are putting in effort to be affordable and livable. Best of a bad bunch.

It's reversed so much cognitive performance decline I felt creeping up on me in my late 30s.
