Such a glorious day deserved a bike ride. It was great out, sunny, warm with a slight breeze. The weather in Omaha has been so crappy lately that I looked forward to today so I could take my bike out.
It was a good ride and I covered 10 miles round trip on the Big Papio Trail, one of the main recreational bike paths through Omaha. There were plenty of people out enjoying the good weather and we traded many smiles and waves as we passed each other.
I checked the bike out before the ride since it was in the garage all winter. Everything was in great condition, good tire pressure, brakes responsive, etc.
I will admit that I hate taking my bike on the streets here. The path started about half a mile from my apartment and part of that I had to cover on the street. I don’t like to dodge cars for my life and not all of the way had sidewalk to use. As you can see I survived!
The weather tomorrow is supposed to be great but I don’t know if I’ll have enough time before my dance lesson at 6:45. If I’m lucky I’ll be able to squeeze a ride or two in during the week! My gym is about a mile and a half away so I may just bike to it as well. I can’t wait for the next ride!
