Pedal to the metal

In an effort to get my fat ass in shape (or at least keep it from going up any more sizes), I decided to take advantage of The Boy's absence by getting out for some nice long bike rides. Below is a great ride I had on Monday. I actually got motivated and hit the trail by 8:30. I crossed over into the District around 9:20 or so. It was great because there was no traffic (none of the museums and attractions were open yet) and I could ride down major streets like Independence Avenue without a car in sight.

On a side note, I finally got around to the seeing the FDR memorial as part of my ride. Wow, that is one awesome memorial. It even has a waterfall. Take that Lincoln and Jefferson! Ha!
