The 100th Nacho Ride draws a big crowd.

The Mopac was very busy as cyclists made their way to Eagle to celebrate the 100th Nacho Ride since they began just over 5 years ago. It was a great day to be biking. After riding to work and tonight's Nacho Ride I parked the Austro-Daimler with 38.98 miles for the day.

A quick detour.

It won't last long, but there is a detour on the Billy Wolff that takes cyclist by the Sunken Gardens on a narrow sidewalk. They'll have it open soon, but what I'm really looking forward to is having the tunnel under the 27th and Capital Parkway open again, that won't happen for months though. Today's miles on the work commute = 20.8

Rural Ride.

A half dozen of us met up for breakfast then headed to Cortland on the Homestead trail. It was a great day for it and a fun group to share some time and miles with. We got back in time for food on the patio. I then took Scott's advice and had a quick nap before riding to the office to get a few things done. Afterward the ride home treated me to a perfect sunset. The spin to Cortland was 42 miles, and the work commute was 20.4 giving me 62.4 for the day.

Good evening.

It was a good evening to grab the bike and go for a quick ride before bed. I spun the legs out on the South Point loop racking up 7.7 miles in around 1/2 an hour. It's one of the nicest paths in all of Lincoln's 128 miles of bike paths and is a quick way to get to shopping and dining.

Getting lost at home.

I had to work on the road today. But this evening I found time to get lost and find myself. I took a short spin around the new neighborhood just exploring and bumming around. Nothing like a leisurely cruise to take the edge off a workweek. I love it here! Tonight's miles = 4.75

Easy street

Take a break from the hassles of driving and bike to work. With construction, auto repairs and the price of gas, sometimes the path less traveled really is easier. Yesterday I had an abbreviated commute after taking the car to the shop to get worked on. I just hauled the bike and rode to the office from there. Yesterday's miles from the mechanic's to work and back = 15.64

9 to 5... And then some.

I got to work in the office again today rather than on the road out of town. That means I can bike to work. But I wish it was more biking and less working. I had a tailwind on the trip home that turned my mood around and put today in the books on a high note. Today's miles = 20.58

10-20? On the DL.

Comments have been made in person, emails and on FB regarding my lack of riding and blogging. Well today I rode the tailwind to work. Then trudged home against a tough headwind and 100' heat. The Austro-Daimler found a piece of glass on the way home and Bob was there to lend a hand getting me up and going. I stopped off at MWC for a new tube and some Co2s of air before finishing the commute. Today's miles = 21.03

Last week I rode to work and back 1 1/2 times adding on another 30.8 miles.

Finally, I'd be remiss if I didn't give a nod of approval to the interweb's newest blogger. Ladies and Gents, let me introduce to you cyclingcounsel

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.
