Rode Green Line LRT to downtown St. Paul, then cycled back to Minneapolis in time for lunch with a friend.

Calm before the storm: solo cycle on Chain of Lakes. The storm: The Tornadic Two (nephews) are about to take charge.

Word of the day: Bucolic. Cycled the Douglas Trail: Pine Island to North Rochester and back. We earned our Blizzards.

Longest ride this year: 39 miles round-trip on Luce Line. Revived by a frosted cinnamon roll, mid-ride, at Watertown.

Cycled across the Mississippi on Stone Arch Bridge on the way to Roseville to meet a friend for lunch.

We walked our bikes across this bridge, avoiding eye contact with BNSF workers, hoping our trespass would be forgiven

Cycled half the beautiful Root River State Trail in SE Minnesota with a friend. Refueled with ice cream and lefse.

Rear derailleur cable snapped, so I diverted to Freewheel Bike for emergency ice cream while my bike was in dry dock.

Cycled through the grittier side of Minneapolis. It was good to be on a cycle path, and not on a freeway.
