10/08/09

Today was a bike day. I got up and realized that the weather was fairly perfect for it. :D It was cool, but really nice out, and it warmed up as I rode.

I haven't logged that many bike miles this week, and I had the time, so I decided to do a longer ride than I have been - at least 10 miles. I rode my usual route towards work, and when I hit the river, I took a left and went down a bike/run path along the river instead of going right and heading towards the bridge into downtown.

No cars. Gorgeous weather. Pretty scenery. :D

11 miles total, 75 minutes, including a couple of stops. Fun. :)

The bike needs a lot of work. The gears need adjusting, and the kickstand and handle bars need to be adjusted and tightened. I'm not a bike mechanic. This should be interesting. Sister of Awesomeness suggested joining the bike co-op at school. One of the perks is that they have people that will show you how that sort of stuff is done. I think I'll take her advice. :D
