Old West Scenic Bikeway

Ride Summary

Experience

* I didn’t feel much like riding, and worried I wouldn’t make it “all the way”. Like usual, I underestimated myself and did just fine. Eventually I relaxed enough to enjoy the scenery.

Weather

* W
arm and sunny

Spotted

* A few other cyclists on the road, all going the other way, all looking like they’ve been bikepacking for a very long time.

Roads

* Delightful. There could have been more shoulder considering this was a “scenic bikeway” with fast moving trucks, but it was fine.

Mechanicals

* None

Two wheels rotate for Pi Day

Ok, so I know Pi day is March 14 (3.14), but it took me a while to archive rides this year. I decided to ride in the shape of the Pi symbol, in a mileage of 314, on 3/14. Considering that I’m pedalling in circles, making round wheels turn to do it all, and that I finished eating a pie, it was all too meta for my brain to handle. I became giggly with excitement and likely scared passers by with my solitary laughter. No matter, this ride was fun.
