I'd much prefer that kind of riding to the concrete jungle I live in. I have to get exercise somehow though. I spend a lot of time on our dedicated bike paths on our levees. They are traffic free and some pass through some relatively pretty places.

I'll bump this one from time to time. I think it's therapeutic for some folks to beyotch about bicyclists.
