Greenway Trail

Date: 8/26/2012
Distance: 43 miles
Time: 4.4 hours
Weather: sunny, warm

This might have been one of my longest bike rides ever. I started near downtown Colorado Springs and rode north on the Greenway Trail almost to Monument, and then back. I made a minor adjustment to my bicycle seat this morning, and all day my butt did NOT hurt! I wish I had figured that one out sooner. My leg muscles, arms, and wrists are sore, but buttocks are a-ok. Bike-riding has another benefit–I can ride without aggravating injuries which I am dealing with in my left foot and right ankle.

This ride followed the long BLUE line:
