Since Doug is more into Facebook these days I thought I might update his blog. A few months ago we started riding bikes for exercise and enjoyment. So far in the month of May we have gone about 80 miles. It is nice to get out into the fresh air and to see scenery that we don't always see. Doug's favorite place to ride is around the pond at the Jensen Nature Park in Syrucuse. There is a longer path in that area that I usually ride. A while ago I thought I would make a goal to ride at least 5 miles each time we ride. Lately I have been trying to push it further each time we ride.
The other night our friend suggested Kay Creek Trail. After riding it Doug said never again. It is not the best trail we have ridden on before. Mostly uphill. Up hill enough that we had to get off the bikes and push them up the hill for quite aways. When we finally got to head downhill we got going really fast. Almost scarily so.
The trails we have ridden on are: The Syracuse Trail which is about 10 miles
The Legacy Parkway trail is about 13 miles
The Holt Trail is about 2 1/2 miles
We rode the Provo River Parkway from the mouth of Provo Canyon just about up to Bridal Vail Falls.
The Kay Creek Trail and we have a trail that is close to our house that we call the Canal trail that is about 5 miles.
It has been a fun Spring riding all or part of these trails.
Maybe Doug will help me put some pictures on here so you can see some of what we see when we go riding.
