random neighborhood ride
standing water, mud, and gravel everywhere
had to make a few detours or just pick another direction
looks like octoberfest at tempe beach park was cancelled
entertaining ride
a lot of people out and about
tempe town lake, greenbelt, az canal, crosscut canal, galvin parkway bike path
breezy and a lot of dust in the air
successfully got out early: 0545
a lot of people on the greenbelt
greenbelt/az canal route to pima, back on crosscut
had never been north of where the greenbelt meets the az canal
actually a continuation of the greenbelt leading to hayden
would take that and loop back on az canal next time
not busy, not windy = nice ride
met claud at the zoo at 0700
this time we went up to hole in the rock, then north for a bit
back around some of the lakes, up to hunt's tomb
a mix of crosscut canal and some of the trails north of curry, back on crosscut
saw a couple of bighorn sheep on the buttes, and a few egrets
haven't wandered around these areas in a few years
think my curiosity is satisfied after our last couple outings
good times with former co-worker/fellow retiree
