Poll of the Day > Just got my new bike.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Rode 5.5 miles from the bike shop home. I usually take the highway and did not realise the back roads where at an incline almost the entire way home. Still I made it and it was a pretty good first ride to get me back into biking.

After getting home I was informed there is a much easier flatter bike path I could have taken if I just rerouted my course a quarter of a mile. I will have to check that path out.

Nice. I just got one a few months ago. Unfortunately it was also right around the time I started playing Pokemon Go, so my urge to really push myself has diminished due to playing while riding.

Biking is damn fun. I still have a Gary Fisher that I bought when I was 16.

Find those trails and shortcuts and god speed.

forecast says rain all week, but it should be cleared up by my next day off. I'm trying to decide if I want to try biking to my brother's house (8 miles and mostly flat) or just go to the river(3 miles and some hills). There is a state park with some popular trails about 2 miles away, but you have to bike up a mountain to get to them.

My brother's house was farther than I though on the bike path. According to my mileage thing there and back is 30 kms. roughly 18 and a half miles.
