I went from the east side of town to the west side yesterday. I estimate it was a 25 mile ride. After that, I went contra dancing for 2 hours. I was beat when I got home. I had a terrible head ache when I got up the next morning, but I did get another 25 miles in. My headache is gone now. I think the bike ride helped. It was a beautiful spring day today, but the wind was very strong. The trees and the grass are greening up, and I think there is more oxygen in the air. I brought a couple of bananas with me, and they energized me when I turned around to go back home.

It stated out cool and cloudy, but then the sun came out and it was nice weather for riding.
I took a picture of an old steam train thats along the trail. I also took an interesting picture of a tree bud. I got another 20 in this week end, and I feel great! I need to extend my trips another 10 miles or so, that should really get me in shape!

It finally warmed up. I haven't rode my bike for weeks. I had a hard time getting myself going, but I'm glad I did. I rode 20 miles very easily, even though the wind was blowing 16 mph. A train diverted me, so I had to take the river road. I don't like the river road because its narrow, and there is a lot of traffic on it. But, I got though it safely.
