The Rails to Trails Conservancy(along with other local and national partners) sponsored Trail Opening Days across the country. I rode my bike up to the Cleveland one at Merwin's Wharf. I went on the bike tour to check out the latest addition to the Towpath Trail - I actually didn't realize these parts were open yet. After the event I rode over to the new restaurant, Good Company, and met Erin for lunch. Afterwards I rode home capping a 90 mile day on the bike.
As usual when I ride I brought my Canon 6D and nifty fifty combo - in general I'm happy enough with the images from this lightweight combo - my main problem with the cheap, plastic lens is actual the colors I get from it(it always takes a little extra editing work to make them look ok).
I always enjoy checking out everyone's bikes. You could tell it really was many people's first day out - flat tires, rubbing, rusty chains, other mechanical issues...gotta get those bike tuned up in spring if you don't ride them all winter friends!
What a handsome bicycle - oh - that is my bicycle!
Ready to Roll
The Towpath Mounds - instead of hauling away the dirt from the excavation the built it up into these mounds that give a great view of the city.
Good Company was fantastic - almost everything was made in house and sourced locally. The food vibe is like a Swenson's - but better quality.
I also had my first beer from the local brewery Jolly Scholar - a delicious porter.
After 42 miles back home in the wind I collapsed on the coach for a while....
