The inaugural ride on my new road bike

I bought my Trek "hybrid" bike almost 18 years ago, so it seemed time to get a new bike. This is the track of the inaugural ride.



I rode up to my friend and neighbor's new house and watched it being lifted into place. It was a hot day, so I didn't stay long before heading out and down the road where I could create my own cooling breeze — at least until I started back home and up the long hill following the Four Corners intersection.
