Back in the saddle again...

Hey, thats reminds me of an old song....well that is another topic for another blog.

Anyway, Bro and I took a ride on Saturday, it was a great day to be outside. Sunny, warm, we started at my house and rode into Downtown on the Greenway. The trail was in good shape, a few puddles along the way, a bit crowded, but we managed to get to Town Hall Brewery for a bite to eat and a few pints. The Cask IPA was as fantastic as I remembered it to be.

I still do not have brakes on my LeTour so I rode Bros old Trek 720. No computer, no lights, no bell. Just me and my pack, to carry home a growler. The Trek has different geometry than does my Schwinn, so, I am still getting used to riding it. I do get more comfortable on the Trek each time I take it out, it is a fine machine.

Sunday we decided to ride out to Ma and Pa's house. We started from Bros house and headed north to pick up the trail at Winnetka. The wind was pretty much at our back for most of the ride. We stopped along the way for an emergency beer, good thing Bro thought to bring them along. It was a fine brew and it tasted pretty good. It was the perfect break.

In all, last week I rode about 40 miles, thats miles that I did not get credit for, but, no worry, I will make them up when I get the brakes on my Schwinn.

Looking forward to a long season of riding!

See you on the Trails!!
