Posted on January 11, 2017 by ehurst

Instead of my normal indoor workout today I wanted a ride while riding is good. Today I chose the Katy Trail and NE 63rd. I think I noted previously that running Reno Avenue westbound I often start off on the … Continue reading →

Photography: Hither and Yon

Posted on December 20, 2016 by ehurst

I really didn’t want to ride all that far, just enough to break the cabin fever. The first image is from last week when I spent time at my father-in-law’s grave. I believe that is an old M42 “Duster” anti-aircraft … Continue reading →

Cycling: Working NE 122nd

Posted on December 3, 2016 by ehurst

Cycling: Old Bridges

Posted on December 2, 2016 by ehurst
