Spring Rides

I went on a good bike ride today, beginning with a tough slog into a fairly strong south wind. My route? The Meadowlark Trail. I knew my reward for reaching the end would a wind powered return trip. The day was nice, pleasant temps, and everything is just starting to turn green. Of course, as … Read more

Big River Bike Ride

An old logging road runs along side the north side of the Big River, south of Mendocino. The road has been converted for use as a hiking and biking trail, and I ventured almost 5 miles in today. It was a fun ride, not very hilly, and while more suited to a mountain or trail … Read more

You can see more June biking photos and larger versions on Flickr, here and here. This photo was taken southwest of Lindsborg, just east of Eighth Avenue on Quivira … Read more

April Sunset Bike Ride

A couple of days ago I went for a bike ride right before sunset and was able to get a few good photos including a couple with Coronado Heights in the background. There are a few more photos from this ride in my Flickr April Ride set. My bike, a wheat field, and Coronado Heights … Read more

Cloudy April Ride

Back in Kansas and enjoying the remote, barely traveled roads around Lindsborg. The route I took for this ride is especially quiet, as folks going north take another route, and the same for those going south. In fact, the road is so infrequently traveled that there were two places that were so rough (muddy with … Read more
