The gaze to the middle distance

Today's Washington Post has what is likely a carefully leaked pre-election story about the inner George Bush, the one who is allegedly troubled by the death toll in Iraq --

Bush deals with [war] stress through vigorous exercise, working out six days a week. When he goes for long bicycle rides, he often invites others to join him, but he asks them not to ride in front of him so he can have the illusion of solitude. "Riding helps clear my head, helps me deal with the stresses of the job," he told reporters last month after an 80-minute ride.

Would this be the same type of bike ride where he yells out "Air Assault!"?
