Gee, just got home, was thinking but riding the towpath a bit. But is sprinkling here, winds in the high 20s and 51 degrees.
Might be better tomorrow, and hope to be home by 3:30 or 4PM...
If tomorrow, any takers for an afternoon ride? Mr DanW? Chipcom? Anyone else in the area? I want to start grinding some miles

Get out there - I just got back form a 38 miler - my longest to date! Whenever I arrive back home I never regret that I went for a ride - though I do regret not going.

Blowing like snot in New York. Went windsurfing instead.

Still blowing like snot, but arms and hands are blown out from yesterday's windsurfing. Hoping the wind will lay down this afternoon for a nice ride.

Well, don't know if Cin will be coming or not, but I am going riding on the towpath from the Center ST crossing today after our Mother's Day lunch - if anyone wants to join me, give me a call, and we'll firm up the time.
Rain is at 10% and wind is dropping from 17, and the temp will be roud 50 or so by noon.

Thats the spirit! Have fun.
I have a nasty case of "Charlie Horse" after yesterdays ride but it was worth it.

Center Street is that just South of Route 224? What's the Tow Path like down there? I have not been South of the Ohio Turnpike on the path.

As I have only been on a few small stretches, I may not be the best to answer this? Chipcom would be better here.
Seems fine to me, mostly crushed rock, but smooth and nice to ride on. Have no idea how it compares North as I have never been.

Thanks, it was a heck of a day. Sometimes I never want to leave the water to go back to the van and grab the camera, but I was toast after about an hour ... so no conflicting desires.
Now I gotta catch up on the cycling I missed. Rear end is getting soft again.
