I rode down Elm Street to the Texas School Book Depository, turned left, went south a block, then headed back east up Main Street. At Griffin a cop made me turn north because of a helicopter doing construction work. I ended up criss-crossing downtown both east-west and north-south before I finally headed east up Commerce Street and into Deep Ellum. I rode through Deep Ellum, almost to Fair Park, then came back down Elm Street. In all it came to 7.03 miles, not bad for being extremely out of shape.

Ride stats:

• 7.03 miles
• 44.46 minutes
• 17.4 mph max
• 9.4 mph average (including red lights)
