Got out for around 25 miles this beautiful. morning. What a way to start the year! I also commuted for the first time in a while on Fri. Not sure what my mileage ended up being for 2011, but I'm happy. Despite all the recent drama, I rode consistently. Here's hoping for good things in '12.
Happy New Year!

Started off the new year with a solo ride out along our Springwater Corridor trail. Beautiful, sunny morning, upper 30s starting out with a strong East wind (17mph, with 24mph gusts). The goal was to go south and east then at the east end point, head north and then enjoy a tailwind coming back home.
Got to see the trail on a section I have not seen, saw some restoration work along the Johnson Creek Watershed (those little ribboned plantings) and gave the MB-1 a final shake down ride before it starts its daily commuting duty Tuesday.
Happy new year everyone!

Then for several days this wk. it will hit above freezin'. I will be bike commuting to work.
