I remember the 1st time I rode from "Metro-West" to West Newton. past the corn fields and apples orchards and farmland into "the city". it was pretty awesome. the next big thing was riding to Fenway Park, and past to Castle Island through Dorchester. it's pretty cozmic mentally to go from such extremes. one thing I observed was a big change in cycling attire. as an over-50 suburb dood I dress one way - but "in town" I felt odd cuz of all the city slickers in their "urban" commuting gear. by time I got home I was close to 60 miles of saddle time. now that's a lot of fun!
