We're actually "near west end"-ish, not far from St. Mary's hospital, few blocks off Libbie.
The best riding route from the new place is basically the riverside loop, plus some futzing in the UR area. Favorite roads in the city, just have to deal with morning rush hour and school traffic at the times I'm usually riding.
Old house (Lakeside) meant I just rode to Ashland all. the. time. Nice to have a bit of variety.
