Cycling

I completed my goal of bicycling the Schuylykill River Trail this summer over the course of several different rides ... parking my car at one site, biking 4-6 miles then back to the car and then choosing a different location for my next ride.  From the Art Museum to the end is about 22 miles ... I did some sections more than once on rides with various family members.  I also did a portion of the Audubon Trail and the Wissahickon Trail.  For the most part it is a pleasant trail... wide and 95% paved. I got to enjoy various portions of the trail with both my daughters, my husband, my sister-in-law and brother-in-law, and two nephews and one niece.  Next year perhaps I will attempt to do the whole trail in one ride.  Our longest ride was 14 miles just last weekend.  It's great to live so close to a nice public recreation area.
