The Green way to travel

As part of my New Year's resolution to stay heart-healthy, Jason and I bought bikes over the weekend and have really enjoyed our little riding adventures around the Mesa. My stamina isn't quite what it used to be yet so the up-hill sections are kind of difficult and I end up walking the bike up really steep sections but I figure I can give myself a break: I just had open heart surgery 3 months ago, so I'm doing pretty good to be on a bike, period!


Anyway, we bought his & hers Schwinn bikes and I decked mine out with a bell and cute wicker basket. We had a fun ride down to Shoreline park on Super Bowl Sunday and then had a nice post-work neighborhood ride last night. It's something we can do together that is both fun and healthy, so it's a win-win! On weekends, we can load up the bikes in the Subaru and head up to Santa Ynez/Buellton area and do some rides up there, as well as some fun beach rides during the summer.
