Had some contractors over today and had to get out of their way for a bit. What a perfect time to take a short bike ride! We stopped for a break in the middle and the tracker stopped recording (which was pretty annoying) which is why there are two sessions.
The trails are still flooded so we had to ride on the roads a bit but luckily up by us there are more side walks so we rode on those as much as possible. It was also a great opportunity to show off my new bike décor! That’s right – I got spoke stars!

Picked up our mountain bikes today and rode them home from the bike shop. I probably haven’t ridden a bike since I was 13 but it really is something you don’t forget!
Mine is the white bike on the right – it is a Trek Skye XL (18.5″ frame with 29″ tires). The Other and I went full mountain bike because Brent has one and we plan on doing most of our riding with him. This also allows us to do a bit more off-roading at some of the parks in the area.
The ride home was a bit stressful since we had to mainly stick to the main roads as the trails were very flooded due to all the rain recently. Was a lot of fun though and we even went out again that night around our neighborhood and on some of the trails near our house and ran into a pack of 6 deer on the trail! There is a certain excitement that does harken back to my childhood and I am looking forward to more rides this summer!
