But then I Started Riding to Make the Maps
See that loop in the box? I rode those streets for no other reason than to add them to the map.
That’s when I realized that I was playing “Bud”.
Here I was 70 years on, running my Dinky Toy (my bike) over a network of streets. Then looking with pleasure at the layout that I had created (now an online map instead of a network of wooden blocks).
I was astonished - but pleased - to see what I was doing.
