2024 Travers Winner!

~Max Kulewicz, Class of 2025

I am in the heart of the forest
Weaving through woods
The sun lowers down while the leaves stay above

The forest welcoming me with open arms
With every turn of the wheel faster and faster

The wind blowing through my hair
I pedal over roots and rocks
I am a bird soaring as free as can be

The scent of pine and the earth
The sound of rustling leaves 
Biking through woods I find my escape

Each crank of the pedal
Every breath of fresh air
Each beat of my heart
I fell in sync with nature

At this moment there's nothing more I need
The worlds concerns fade away
On this journey I’ve found my freedom
