Took a bike ride this morning after installing a little cycle computer to track distance & speed. Headed out to the lakefront then north to Hollywood. North of Montrose there were already four or five soccer games going on (at about 8:00 am) and dozens of large families who had staked out prime lakefront spots and were already grilling. Turned around at Hollywood and headed back south. Saw a middle-aged guy on his nifty recumbent bike with his African Gray parrot on his shoulder. Only went as far south as Fullerton, then down Fullerton to Lincoln north back home. About 13 miles in total in less than an hour.
