It’s been a day…

Well…so, I was hoping for a nice easy day and a bike ride this morning…and when I rode over to JBP to take a look at the trails, it started out that way….the trails were snow an ice covered, as I expected, so I turned around and headed back here but got a flat just leaving the park entrance…luckily, it was a front tire and I didn’t feel like walking a mile and a half back here so I just started to ride it back here at about 3mph and waited for the tire to come off the rim as it usually does but it made it all the way back here so that was cool. So, I got back here and then headed to Meijers to get another tube and this Meijers had the Slime tubes that I like that are much thicker than the cheap Schwinn ones that I bought last time…and only 8 bucks so that made me smile a bit….so I replaced the tube, put the bike back together, and decided to scout out bike lanes on the streets around here and was able to find enough to get 10 miles in today…so, until the trails thaw, it looks like I can still ride every day…and I think I’m going to ride into the city tomorrow to just look around and see if they have any bike lanes there that may be usable after it gets warmer in the spring….I may just be able to ride outside all winter if this bike lane thing works out…pretty cool….
