Tuesday June 29, 2010 was the last ride of June this year. 20.1 miles at an average speed of 13.3 made an enjoyable evening. The temperature was in the low seventies and humidity was low. A north wind encouraged us to ride that direction first so that we would have a wind assist coming home. There was an comment this evening, when we were on the unfinished portion of the Cardinal Trail, north of Industries Road. As we rode side by side, between "Jewelweed" (Impatiens capensis) plants that were at least waist high, he said, "It's almost like riding between rows of hedge." We eagerly await the completion of this trail and know there are many folks using it already.
I will say that the wild raspberries, along the nearly completed Cardinal Trail, have been harvested as quickly as they ripen. Certainly there are many resources that are utilized by trail users. It isn't just a trail to walk or bicycle on. The sights and coolness under trees are just a few of the wonders to enjoy.
