Biking Minneapolis

_A091629

Such delightful bike paths.  It is amazing how close Milwaukee could be to this biking mecca.  On another note, why are Minneapolis / St. Paul , Seattle, and Portland the US’s biking cities?  Why not warm, nice places like Miami, Phoenix, LA.  Intriguing.

The path rides along the lakes surrounding the city.  They have separate biking and walking.  More importantly, they have speed limits.  The bike paths are for lollygaggers, not for commuters.  Brilliant.

Four bike, four helmets, one tiny bike lock. Time for lunch.

Another way to ride Minneapolis.  Seems so wrong, and so hilarious at the same time.

The rail right of way, well preserved and strikingly convenient.  One favorite part, a bike / coffee shop on the trail.

Fall perfection.

 

Enjoy,
