How I have missed our long bike rides! Last summer, it was so horribly hot that we didn’t get too many long bike rides in. Our last ride was on the beach in Florida—and that was wonderful. This weekend, hubby fixed my bike tire, did some maintenance, hooked up the bike rack, and we were off for our first bike ride of 2013!
We went to a local forest preserve that we had never biked through before. We biked about 7 miles. Not a long ride, but it was wonderful to be out in the sunshine.
Since it has been so cold this spring, there wasn’t a whole lot of life in the forest. I took a few pictures, but not too much was photo worthy quite yet!
Here are a few shots from our ride:
We want to get new bikes this year. We’ve been riding some used bikes we bought from a friend for $100 a few years ago. They really don’t fit us. We want to shop around before making our purchase.
Do you have a bike you love? What model is it?
