I am way behind in reporting my bicycle statistics on my blog. Of course, no one cares about this in the slightest aside from myself. In fact, this is yet another boring feature or series of posts to add to an already boring blog. No one cares about random numbers such as these. Oh well. I'm writing my blog more for myself than for others (I know, selfish), so if you are not interested in this sort of post, just don't read it! :) That said, since I'm so far behind, I'm going to attempt to catch up right now by writing briefly about all of the past rides - with some, there's nothing to write.

Fanno Creek Trail/Greenway Park With Mom
This was one of my first rides after a renewed interest in riding bikes. Of course I was already riding my bike to work quite regularly. After buying the bike computer and other accessories, I believe this ride with my mom was the first. We set out to find the continuation of the Fanno Creek Trail. Previously, D and I had never found the continuation and had gone only as far as Woodard Park near Pacific Highway. My mom and I read a sign posted at this end that directed us to the continuation, which can be found on Main Street in Tigard. From there, the path continues for quite a distance, with a number of offshoots I have yet to explore. My mom and I also reached yet another end to the trail, this time with no sign to direct us to the next segment. See photos from the ride on EsoShow

Fanno Creek Trail/Greenway Park With Mom and Dad
My parents called to see if I wanted to go on a bike ride. This was the first ride I went on with both my mom and dad... perhaps even ever?... at least since I was a child or something, I think. With little time to make plans, we resorted to going on the Fanno Creek Trail again, along with the newly discovered extension.

Notes: The ride with my parents on 08-06-08 was approximately 11 miles of the 18.11 stats total. The rest was accumulated on 08-07-08. I simply forgot to reset my bike computer after the first ride, so the numbers are combined. |

This ride is in addition to the Springwater Corridor ride with my mom earlier in the day. This 8.46 miles was accrued by riding to and from church in the evening after I got home from my parents' house.
