Nope, nothing does…

Absolutely correct!

The dedicated bench in this photo is at the southern end of the Wiouwash State Trail, which runs from Oshkosh to Hortonville, WI. I couldn’t find any information about Michael McCoy, what kind of person he was, but obviously he loved biking for much of his life.

This past Mother’s Day, after spending some time with mom, I took the bike and myself to the trail and spent a couple of hours with a blue sky, sun, and a few other bikers and hikers. A young couple on horseback was also on the Wiouwash, maneuvering the path and leaving a few smelly, brown apples along the way.

I picked a good day for a pleasurable ride, although the wind gave me a workout on the way back to the car. Still, better than the rain we are now experiencing and better than the cooler temperatures that are on the way for the coming weekend.

It’s possible I could go another two weeks before getting on the steed again, so there’s no point in creating a missed opportunity.

Right?

The remainder of this post is contained within the gallery and associated comments. There isn’t much else to say about Sunday and a simple bike ride except that nothing really does compare…

Artistic impressionism and my shadow

This wooden railing keeps me from going over the edge.

Oh boy, I hope so. It can stay that way until December.

I love the shadows across the ground and the light through the trees.

Dark and light, dark and light.

I was there, Waldo was not.

There are plenty of farm fields and farms along the way.

Can never get enough of the bridges.

Here’s the sign that asks everyone to obey the rule of courtesy.

There is nothing lovelier than being amid the trees on two wheels.

At a certain time of the summer, both sides of this stretch are ablaze with yellow.

Not to worry, I’m not a speed racer.
