Today’s Hot Ride

Today we rode 31 miles of path in the big city (Watson Park to 21st N & 119th E). About halfway into the ride we decided to stop for lunch and a big, ice cold beer despite the fact that it was 10:45am. After our early lunch we continued on our way, stopping at a Volkswagen show in the park. Along the Arkansas River we spotted big carp, turtles, fisherman, swimmers and the renovation work on the historic Broadview Hotel and the construction of the new dam. We encountered a lot of people on the path in the morning but come afternoon there were next to none. On the way home we spotted signs displaying a temperature of over 100 degrees (°F).
