It's little secret that I've been bitten by the bicycling bug. We'd long spoken around the office about how cool it would be to just ride a bike to work whenever the odd car repair bill surfaced. However I took to the bike as last ditch effort to combat my increasing girth. Oddly, increasing exercise has always seemed a much simpler task than modifying my diet. Saving on gas and vehicle maintenance were simply ancillary benefits.
Like so many cities, Cincinnati is beginning to embrace the biking public. The recent ribbon breaking of Riverside Drive bike lane improvements had me itching to checkout a route that may well be part of my future commute. That is if Gaslight winds up moving downtown. The monthly Web/Tech Drinkup offered the perfect excuse!
Mind you, I've been biking fairly regularly for about 15 months, consisting largely of 10 mile round-trip work commute
