Back to the Bike

Biking season has returned! Sort of :)

I have been bundling up and biking my way to work the last few days and it feels so  good. It's amazing how great fresh air can be after months of winter weather and having to drive. Even if that air is freezing, it's refreshing to be outside again.


Being on the silver steed makes me think of summertime, spring colors, wearing sandals and shorts, and going for long rides by the lake. I can't wait for those warmer days! Right now it's still pretty chilly and we have to wear earmuffs and gloves, but it's worth it.

Once the seasons change, I definitely want to bike the lakeside pathway down to the city, as well as up to the Chicago Botanic Gardens.

Do you bike for fun or to work? Are you enjoying springtime outdoor activities yet?
