OK, been on that, looked familiar but couldn't place it. Do you ever ride the Ozaukee Interurban?

Nice to know I'm not the youngest one here. Do your parents know you are on line?




Most of my cycling is commuting or running local errands all by my lonesome, so I have no recent pics of me on a bike unless you count this silly one from a few years ago:



Here's a recent non-cycling pic of me and my honey of 32 years. (married for 28):

Not on my commute, but occasionally for recreation, sometimes with my daughter. Like to go up to Cedarburg for the festivals and Friday concerts in the park. Take the bike - no parking hassles and can't buy much - sorry, not enough room in the bag! I do really like that trail.

Only been riding it for about 6 years or so, did Mequon (Co. Line) to Oostburg and back once, think it was about 68 miles. Usually my rides are 20-30 miles. Great trail, lots of different communities and scenery to ride through.
