Hello everyone -- my name is Dave and I love to ride! 

Finally a day that was warm enough to get on my newly-inflated wheels. 

I rode north to 9th and Lafayette. Went west to 6th where I jogged south on Christopher and over to my favorite Hudson River Bikeway. Then the big question -- north or south? Considering this was the first ride of the season, there were good arguments to go south. Shorter ride. Well-defined terminus. Possibly other routes to come home on. But I went north.  

Familiar route. Turned around at the Intrepid, and crossed the highway at Horatio. Rode south on Washington, turned east on 10th and rode it to Cooper Sq where I turned south. Considered taking Bleecker St. Maybe next time. 

It was a bit chilly and my legs burned a bit and I got tired sooner than I would have if I had been doing it every day, but IT FELT FUCKING GREAT TO BE BACK ON MY WHEELS.  

Here's the route and stats thanks to CycleMeter.  

I've also hooked up CycleMeter and DailyMile, so my trips will automatically (knock wood) show up over there too.
