Bike To Work Week kick-off event.

Today was the Bike To Work week kick-off event downtown to get the word out about next weeks designation as Bike To Work Week. There was a good crowd on hand. I had to work out of town, so I only got 10.1 miles in today.

Movement

Biking to work can be a lot like pooping. If you wait to long, it can be hard, exhausting, embarrassing and smell bad. But if you ride to work regularly you'll find it fast, easy, enjoyable, and good for your health.

For those of us who need a gentle reminder, next week is Bike To Work Week with a kickoff event tomorrow morning downtown.

Today's miles on the ride to work and back = 20.74

Ride around.

I rode to work and found where some moron moved a picnic table across the shortcut from Holdrege St to the John Dietrich. It'd have been tough to see in the dark and could have caused a heck of a wreck. I had a sweet tail wind. I spent the day working on the road, so I only got a 1/2 a commute in equaling 10.2 miles.

Happy 5th Birthday Nacho Ride!

I took the Felt to work and found a sticker, otherwise it was a nice trip in.

Afterward, I rode straight to the Mopac trailhead for the 5th anniversary Nacho Ride. Council was rocking his 'fancy' socks and Phil had desert to help us celebrate. There was a good crowd. The ride home is quite a bit farther than it used to be, and it's not just me whining because I'm so out of shape. It was a perfect night to be out on the bike and I parked it with 43.1 miles for the day.

Getting reacquainted with the Rock Island.

Yesterday was my first commute to the new abode. I drove to work, then rode the Astro-Daimler home. I was shocked to find that it wasn't more miles or time than I had thought it'd be. Yesterday's miles on the 1/2 commute = 10.56
