Hey a friend that also rides his bicycle to work was videoing his ride and I ended up passing him in the morning on Friday so he gave me a copy of the video and I cut the part where I show up out and put it to music. It is here for your pleasure. This is my first attempt at linking in video...



Friday Morning

Started out today on mile 23,000 for this bike. Bad news was I did not charge my camera's battery so no pics for the mornings ride....

Monday Morning

Threat of rain so no pictures. It didn't rain but I did not want to take the chance and have the camera out on the handle bars. In fact I didn't even bring the camera so even if it clears I won't be able to take any pictures tonight either.

Took the short way home. My daughter has been in Choir Camp this week and tonight is the show they have been working on for four days. I find it amazing that they can learn a 2 hour show in just four days.

Monday Night ride. I'm finally free to go. But then my manager was trying to make me miss it! Didn't get out till 5:10pm and it takes me about an hour to get there, Well I did in 55 minutes and they hadn't left yet!

36.22 Miles

Rode the greenways and boy was there Mud everywhere since they tend to follow the creeks. Some parts were destroyed and others you could see the mud that had to be removed.



Another shot of the green way....






Just look at the mud. The water looked like it was over the bridge.....




You can see how much Mud has been removed by looking at the edge of the path...




Greenway Washed out. Had to walk around what you see here is where the ground used to be....

Wednesday Night

Well what can say about tonight's weather? Floods everywhere. Left work early due to the fact that the only road in to the building was cover with about 1 foot of moving water. It was fun riding on the bike out. My feet could not get any wetter since they had to be submerged to pedal. No pictures due to the rain still failing. It would have made a great picture.

Wow did it ever rain this morning. I would like to thank the three drivers on Kildaire Farm Road this morning. They were so nice as to not even slow down while driving though the flooded section after Queensferry. Now I know what it would be like to bike under a waterfall. Thank you again for that experience.
