Bicycles... is there anything they can't do?

Today has been much better than I thought it would be. Not only did I manage to go to class (my allergies have been hellish the past few days), but I also made myself enjoy this awesome weather and get out on the bike. I took it very easy today, but it was still amazing! I hung out at Carillon Park for a bit (while trying to figure out if I had a flat tire/ degunk my bike a bit), went over to Boston Stoker for some tea, biked around downtown, and then headed home on the bike path. I didn't even bother getting near the path where it usually gets flooded when it rains (since it's rained every day since Saturday), but luckily it's pretty easy to hop on and off the path if you know where to go. Though I was out for a while, I only ended up doing just over 20 miles. It was 20 more miles than I thought I would get to do though, so that makes me happy.

Tomorrow is a big day for the Dayton biking community as well. It's the first day for the Tricab (Tricab Dayton Facebook), and the Bicycle Art Show is opening at Press on Wayne Avenue in Dayton as well for First Fridays. If you are looking for a ride tomorrow, there is the monthly Courteous Mass (Courteous Mass Dayton) ride starting around 5:30 at Fifth Third Field. Hopefully everything will go well, and the rain will stay away for another day.

I hope everyone is enjoying Bike Month! Also, remember Urban Bikes @ Urban Nights (Urban Bikes @ Urban Nights Facebook Page) is next Friday as well! Hope to see a ton of people there! Get out and bike!
