A lovely long bike ride

You know, you never really get to know your town until you hit the pavement with your bike or feet. It is like being a tourist in another country--down-low living with the locals, as a local; getting to know the neighborhoods, meeting people. On this ride, I introduced myself to the local YW/MCA; saw the building over 100 times from my car but never stopped in. I found out there are some great people near me who offer a gym, a pool, and ping pong. I was on my way to one errand where I ran out of steam and figured I needed to go back home and take a break. Over 5 miles today...
