Into the desert

I took my husband to the desert I found when I got lost the other day. He thought it was great and I'm thinking we might take a picnic next time. I really like going for rides with him and I'm glad he's enjoying them too.
I think his bike looks naked with no baskets or a kickstand. He likes it that way though so any hauling will be done by Sylvia. I think they look good together, different yet complementary. It's a lot like us.


Sylvia looks skeptical about touching the tree.
The weather was perfect, nice and cloudy. We don't get many days like that here and I cherish every one. I hope it rains soon so we can go splash in the puddles together.

On the way home we saw this cool bridge. I know there's a bike lane on it, but there's also a ton of traffic. Maybe on day we'll ride on it instead of under it. It was a good ride.
Awesome bridge over the bike path.

  2. You two look good together! :)
    I imagine it's beautiful riding there now. Too hot in summer? And you're right - bike paths are great. Bike LANES can be tricky.

    1. Thanks! It can be hot in the summer, but I just go out early or late to avoid it. I try to stick to side streets and paths. Tucson is bike friendly like a grumpy aunt is friendly.

  3. Cycling in the desert sounds like fun. My wife's bike has bags and baskets, while I carry my stuff on my back in a rucksack. Each to their own!

    1. I agree, but his could still use a kickstand for better pictures. ;)
