bike week - thursday

My Commute

To get to work, I have three routes to choose from.

Option A: Straight down Portage (10 min.)
Option B: Westminster to Assiniboine, Assiniboine to Fort, left on Fort (20 min.)
Option C: Westminster to the river trail, river trail to Bannatyne, Bannatyne to my office (30 min.)

And then up three flights of stairs to get to the secure bike lock-up, which I totally appreciate even though the stairs are killer.

So guess which option I choose? (Unless I'm late for work, or the floods in Illinois raise the water level here so that the trail is under a foot of water.)

The long way seems more scenic.

The long way is the best. Saw probably close to a hundred ducks on the way home on Friday. Parents and lots of babies. Always feel relaxed and happy riding that way.
