Tuesday evenings are sailboat race noght on the lake, and when the weather is nice, as it was last night, it can get crowded.

Beware: Non-C&V content: 31 miles on the fixed gear last night, including a quarter mile long 12% grade. Boo. Yeah.
Not exactly sure about these sculptures...

Approaching Downtown at dusk

The Tower... hit by a tornado in 2000, this office building was redone as condos.

The downtown bike shop

Downtown as seen from the north along the river trail

The bright boxes in the foreground are the new community college campus (downtown in back)

Doohickie,
It looks like many of your rides are done near/after dusk. Is that because of the scorching Texas heat?
I think it's funny, because your pictures make the Fort Worth area look quite nice, but I'm not sure I'd be able to bear the heat again.

I always like Doohickies ride posts. They look like one of my favorite types of riding, rambling around your city with frequent stops to take in the scenery.

Grounded a pedal about .5 mile from home today. Bike jumped about a foot to the right, but my mad skillz saved the day 

If I'd have hit the deck, it would've been the first time since 1999 - and the first time ever I'd have crashed on my left hand side.
Still going...

Ouch. I did the same thing a few days ago rushing to work. I took a big chuck out of my Time pedal. Not my first time with pedal strike so I too didn't crash.

I met up with these angry dudes on a pier in Santa Cruz, California, when I was out to San Jose for an interview last week.

I really liked it out there!

What's the enormous growth on your top tube?

As mentioned, we do our weekly pub crawl on Sunday. We meet at a dive bar called The Chat Room. This is what passes for ambiance there:

Almost 100 degrees today; the ride was a little smaller than usual, although still a good crowd, probably 30-40.

Our first stop:

Yes, folks, this is what a dive bar looks like.

A flat on the way.

Traffic on the trail

Stop #2 has a nice rooftop patio. It was their grand re-opening. We usually make two stops but this one was added in the middle of the ride.

On to Stop #3

Their "patio" is a covered area between the old train station and the boarding area. Yes, it is still an active train station.

Bicycle Repair Man !!!
I was doing my banking and running a few errands today and this little park, waterfall, and ponds sit right in the middle of our down town... it is a very popular place for people to come during the day and evening and one of many favourite spots to take pictures as I don't have a white garage door but borrow one from time to time.
