The trails run along the Clinton River, we rode for about 11 miles. It took about an hour. It wasn't too bad. It was pretty easy, actually. We heard that trail is supposed to run from Stoney Creek, does anyone know where the trail connects when you get out of Sterling Heights?<br /><br /><br /><br />Let me know if anyone has any maps or info on the Clinton River trail, post the info if you got it.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8478982326671812765-8930446518018616788?l=pedal2work.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jim Toscanonoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8478982326671812765.post-55183069529638324122008-07-31T09:30:00.000-07:002008-07-31T06:25:03.481-07:00Today I ”Pedaled 2 Work” for the first time ever. It was an 11 mile trip from my front door to my office. It took about an hour and ten minutes.<br /><br />I just bought a Schwinn 26” Ranger for $169 from Target this past weekend. It rode pretty good, a little clicking in the gears, it even changed gears on it’s own at one point. But all in all it wasn’t bad. I even filled up the water bottle, I felt like a little kid doing it, but it came in handy.<br /><br />Reason for biking to work: Gas prices have a little bit to do with it, bust most of all I just want to get into shape. I’m 30, I’m Italian, and I’ve been married for about a year. My wife is also Italian and she is a great cook! So I have packed on quite a bit of pounds over the past year. I’m not even sure of exactly what I weigh. I should weigh myself and post my specs in order to chart my progress. I also wanted to just sort of change up my routine!<br /><br />It was a good morning<br /><br />Anyways, this is my first blog ever! So I am going to keep it short this time.<br /><br />-Kick Stan<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8478982326671812765-5518306952963832412?l=pedal2work.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Jim Toscanonoreply@blogger.com1
