Another Sunday Ride

Sunset photo's at Diefenbaker Park again. If anyone wants to not see any more of these please leave a comment. :)

The Burley sitting against the bench at Cranberry Flats, the perfect place to nap on a warm day.

Riding into Furdale where the town sign says, " Please Drive Safe, our roads are our sidewalks".

Cruising along, it's hard to shoot photo's with the SLR and ride at the same time.

Here is where I went riding today, I rode out south of the city a little ways to Cranberry Flats.

I just started my website on freewebs.com and it seems to have died, I don't know what happened but it's gone, sorry guys. Anyway I went for a good ride today, it was one of those days that reminds you of a scene out of the movie "Fargo" very cloudy and depressing. But it was quite warm, when I started riding at around 12:45 it was -8C outside. There was a cold wind coming from the West and I ended up riding into it for most of the ride. I took my horn off today, I realized that I had used it only once in the last couple of months and I wanted that water bottle holder back again because it is warming up. Not much though, by the time I got to Cranberry Flats I had nothing but a 7Eleven slushy in my water bottle :) I took some photo's at the lookout point at Cranberry Flats, but I didn't stick around long because it was such a cold wind. I rode back into the city and did some hill climbing around Victoria Bridge for a while before heading home. All together I got 34.5kms on the bike today. Not too bad, but I'm hoping to be in reasonable shape to log 200km and 300km rides in the spring. I want to go back to Batoche national park which is just around 200kms round trip from Saskatoon, and I want to take a lot of photo's there, it is beautiful there. So I guess that is something to look forward too, for everyone that follows my blog, I like to show you guys new things and for the non-cyclist I want to show you how much fun it can be. I think it takes a certain person to get hooked on cycling, some people never catch the bug, no matter how many good rides they go on. I just like to say that my worst day cycling is always better then my best day at work. And it is a cheaper hobby then golf, not much cheaper, but a little bit. :) If it doesn't snow like it is supposed to tomorrow I will head out for a ride, so ride safe and have fun.
