City Ride

Yesterday we decided to go on a short bike ride starting from our apartment. We went to Greenwood Park and connected on the trails there heading west. It total it was only about 10 miles but it was chalk-full of hills!! Near our dwelling there are hills in every direction so getting to Greenwood and coming back from it is tough! For those of you who live in/ been to DSM you know that west of downtown near Grand and Locust is hilly. And if you are doing anything on these hills beside driving and walking it is quite tiring. This workout was short but bitter.  We haven't done too many hilly trails so we were not ready for them. 

The best part about our little bike ride was the fact that it was hot and sunny out so we got to work on our tans a little ;). So I guess we are still out of shape, but the summer is young! We have many more trails to hit up and places to see. So stay tuned for more bike blog entries and summer fun! Thanks for reading!
