I then headed out to Lake Arcadia to get a little hill workout in. I left from the project office and headed north, then E, S, N, W, S, W, S. I changed directions just a few times. I was just exploring the backroads of OK and enjoying a nice hot, humid morning on the bike. My main objectives were to get some good pictures and get a hill workout in. Done and done!!!
It was a great little ride. I only rode 17 miles, although I must admit that it felt much, much longer than that. I was out there for about 1:40, so I'm kinda disappointed but it really doesn't matter. I had fun. I rode hills. I got good pictures. I enjoyed myself. That's what it's all about!
I'll let the pictures tell the story:
Pretty creek I passed over at the start of the ride.
Hee hee- Mission accomplished!
I've ridden by this cemetery many times, but have never stopped. It's a pretty neat little plot.
Watch out, little turtle. I better move you off the road to safety!
Cool driveway to someone's house. Cool except when covered in ice...
Good ol' Oklahoma rollers
Same creek that I passed early on, but now there are neat birds hanging out in it. What kind are they?
When I got back to the car, there were lots of hawks flying around above. I managed to catch one in motion. They sure are pretty!
Overall it was a great ride. I'm now on a mission to ride my bike, have fun and take lots of pictures. Mission accomplished.
Ride on, my friends!!!

Beautiful scenes of nature, part of what makes riding a bike so awesome. The birds in the creek picture were cool, they look like egrets to me.
Egrets- of course. Thanks!
Riding a bike lets you see all the neat things you miss driving so fast. And I certainly ride slowly enough to enjoy all the sights!
