Back in September, a short time after getting my new bike--the first since I was about 8 1/2 (my college bike was a multi-owner), my husband took pictures of me riding out on the land. I posted them on LiveJournal here.

Today, he took others, and I posted the new pictures to LiveJournal as well...it's purely coincidence that I'm wearing the same purple T-shirt.

The two together give a pretty good idea of what our open land is like--old cow pasture that had been cropland before and terraced. There's nothing really exciting, unless you're an older woman who hasn't had a bike in years and even then rode only on streets or the occasional hard-beaten path in a vacant lot. The trails in the dry woods and creek woods are more challenging, but not compared to the videos I've seen of mountain bikers.

But fun? Yes. Lots.
