Bike ride

This morning Lorraine and I met Lucy for a bike ride on the Jackrabbit Trail.

Lorraine is the person who makes the beautiful cards – some of you have received cards made by her!

Urban Cycling: meeting 2

Hurray! We were able to meet in person this morning at Neil Orchard Senior Center in Rancho Cordova. Cesar from SABA was a great addition. One of his skill areas is bike mechanics, therefore greatly appreciated by me. While 8 people signed up for the free class, only 1 showed up – Fayzah.

The good news, Fayzah’s three kids came to the class also.

Bike ride

Pete and I rode to Old Sac then across the Tower Bridge to W Sacramento there’s a trail along the river for a mile or so. It ends on this pier:

Drake’s Brewing Co, a nightclub with a huge outdoor space:

Almost full-size metal trees along the river. The shiny disks were only attached to the framework at the top, they moved easily in the breeze. Shimmering silver trees!

Bike ride

Two or three times a week, Pete and I go for a ride. Depending on the weather and what’s going on that day, we ride up to 20 miles. Today’s ride was about 12 miles. The “Leroy Greene ride” leaves the bike trail, goes past Leroy Greene Academy and winds through a residential neighborhood underneath the I-80 bridge over the Sacramento River.

Bike ride

Today Cheryl and I rode the Redbud Trail and around N Natomas Regional Park. When we stopped to drink water, about 15 roller skaters rolled by. No blades, four wheels under each foot! They are back in fashion.
