My KHS 10-speed, which is a tribute to the bike I had in middle school.

Maiden voyage was last night's group ride. We ended up at a little place called The Broad Axe. They finally have live music again now that COVID restrictions have lifted.

The original question is "What have you been riding?" I had a hernia repair in mid June. The surgeon just gave me the OK to ride last week. This was after being off the bikes for 6 weeks. I tried it a couple of days last week and got sore. This week I have been out twice (yesterday and today) and have logged just over 10 miles each day. My go to bike is my '09 Chinese Schwinn. I have thousands of miles on this bike as I often ride it about 250 to 300 miles a month. All is has ever needed was replacement tires, one chain replacement and I have put bottom bracket bearings in it. I grease it often and keep it out of the weather. I think these modern bikes are actually much tougher than they give them credit for.

Here is a shot about 5 miles in on my ride today. I stayed on the pavement, just thought this might make a nice picture.

Travelling for work. Spinning some miles in and around Augusta GA today. Rode the tow path trail, north Augusta SC Greenway and the river levee trail in a big loop. One ride, two states

And I saved a turtle that was in the middle of a busy 4 lane bridge! 😀
