As a bicyclist, I can choose to ride on either side of the road to Keystone Canyon: do I choose sand or rocks?
I choose sand because it's smoother and I don't want to rattle my damaged bike rack more than necessary. But I can hardly stay afloat in the sand, so I change my mind and try rattling my way up the rockier side of the road.
