Cypress ride...
 
Cypress, TX that is. Sorry for the tease but I fugured it would get a few viewers. With all the "where I ride" pics lately I thought I would add some of my own. No I don't have any ocean or lake views, no mountain passes but what I do have is lonely, traffic free country roads.

The first one is just as I leave my neighborhood and the windmill is how I decide which loop to ride that day. Today the wind is coming from the NW at around 5-10 MPH so I head west for a clockwise loop.

Just getting started on quiet back road.

Here's the first wildlife I see today. It was at least 5 feet long and as thick as RyanF's leg.

Here a few wildflowers that are still hanging around. No bluebonnets left in the area at all.

Some more wildlife. A small snapping turtle.

Here's a nice horse lined road that's a little bumpy but still a nice ride.

Heading into the trees for a while.

My Carbonello. It's really an old fixed gear conversion Cannondale.

I am back home and didn't make it to a full 40 so that proves it was a real ride.

Last one I promise. Well I guess I am no RyanF. Only 17.3 avg. speed. Someday, maybe someday!
