I wouldn't classify myself as a power-biker, but I like to make use of one when I can. I ride my bike to work, to the store, around trails; wherever it will take me.
Trips
When I get the chance, I like to pack my little bike full of gear and take short or long trips with it.
- Waterfall Glen - A simple path in the Chicago suburbs that I visit a couple of times a year.
- I&M Canal - Kevin and I took a 100 mile ride along the I&M Canal in July of 2006.
- Lincoln Bikeride - A ride around Lincoln, Nebraska in the fall of 2003.
Commuting
When I got my bike, i wanted it for two things: to ride around in the woods, and to get me to and from places I needed to go. My first bike earned most of its miles getting me to and from school/work, including one summer where it was the only form of transportation I had the entire summer. Today I try to ride my bike to work at least two or three times a week in the summer, but sometimes the weather or my schedule just don't cooperate.
