more biking





(my view on the ride, taken with the ever blurry and increasingly weak cameraphone)

Saturday was a busy workday out in Little Falls, so Sunday was our fun day. After the sky cleared, we hit the streets for a pleasant ride along the Hudson River. There were scores of small boats in the river with fisherpersons happily enjoying the spring day. I like the nature within the city aspect of trails like these, particularly as they demonstrate the need for public parks funding.

For a non-athletic, sit-at-a-computer-all-day-and-write person, I felt sufficiently sporty after the ride with mud splatters up my pants and my back. And, as usual, I managed to gouge up my shins while walking the bike out of the apartment and while navigating the sidewalk.

Fisherpersons. Nice. Good job on the long ride yesterday.

Why am I not surprised about the gouged shins in just transporting the bike?!
