Today was one of those perfect days for riding. The temperature was in the high fifties, there was no wind, and the sun was shining. I have to admit, my ride in was one of my slowest commutes yet, I just rode along enjoying the views; the sin shining off the bay, reflections in the water, and wild flowers blooming. How could someone not enjoy this mode of transportation?
On the local cycling front, I’m helping organize local bile trains every Monday during the month of May, June, and July. We are focusing on leading trains down the three major bile paths that lead onto Providence. Our goal is to try and pursuade those cyclists who have been toying with trying bicycle commuting, but for whatever reason haven’t goten over the initial hump. The train speeds will stay slow, so it’s possible for any cyclist to join us. I sure hope the project is successful and encourages some new bicycle commuters.
