Cycled to the middle of the Mississippi on a former railroad bridge. The rest of the bridge, a swing bridge, has been removed.

Crossing a Work Zone
For the second time this week the trail was blocked by construction. I was planning a lengthy detour, when a member of the crew came up to me and cheerfully led me through the work site. He was grateful today’s high would be in the 80’s and not the 100’s.
Nice Fenders
Rode a Nice Ride shared bike, first time ever. I appreciated the fenders.
Games
On our way back from haircuts, tied up our bikes and popped into Longfellow’s Grill for brunch. A women’s softball game played on the other screens
Freewheel Bike
Popped into Freewheel Bike to buy a new bike lock. The old lock could be opened with a pen.
Pursuit of Inspiration
Cycled in pursuit of inspiration. Came up dry at City Salvage.
Route to Grocery Store
Cycled to the grocery store. I’m still figuring out the best balance of distance, aesthetics, and safety.
Cycling Beside Ice
A cool breeze blew off Bde Maka Ska, creating a significant temperature drop as we cycled by. Today is the latest I have seen ice on this lake.
Three Days in a Row
Lifted my bike off its rack, third day in a row.
45th Parallel
Cycled in search of the 45th parallel. Found a rock, a plaque, and a lost glove.
