Tip: Downtown Houston, Allen Parkway, West Gray, West U, etc. are very nice bike routes early on Sunday mornings.

My wife got a new "Townie" bike and loved it, so I got one, too. Being 78, all my rides are on neighborhood streets. The "pedal forward" design is a great improvement over regular bikes. Only negative is lack of a suspension. It may look sissy, but I just love it !

Is that an out and back ride?

North wind ride this morning. Did not realize one road was closed so had to backtrack a few miles to a dirt road, that was in fact, a mud road for a couple of miles. Threw the bike in the hotel shower after the ride.

One way. My wife drives and races, I just ride out

70 degrees and 10% chance of rain. I got the rain, lol

And of course, I got the train crossing as well. At least it was pretty quick

West wind 5mph. About 15 miles of this was crushed limestone bike trail. The rest Was paved bike trail and surface streets. Traffic lights really kill your overall speed.

I was watching the Tour de France, day 2. Then I rode 6 miles.

Pretty typical ride. No Kitteh rescue today but lots of foxes and rabbits out.

Yeah, the police are looking for her for some sort of reckless injury charge.

There were several big crashes in Stage 1.

Likewise.

Love the connection of the current owner of the maillot jaune back to Raymond Poulidor!

Broken bodies and broken dreams. It was a wild day.

Found a lake with some trails. Bugs are extremely attracted to the headlight. Will need to wear my shooting glasses if I do that again at 0300
