Bike to work

Rode my bike to and from work for the first time. The ride to work was fairly easy. Most of the ride is on Bryant Avenue which is a bike-dedicated street. I went over to Nicollet Avenue to get the office but the buses and cross traffic are particularly bad. Next time I will take an alternate route. I did make it to work faster than taking the bus.

After work I went to an event at Mill City Museum It is a few blocks from work on the Mississippi River. So my ride home was up Portland Avenue in the bike lane then over to Loring Park and back up Bryant. The key word about going home is the "up" part. Uptown is definitely up hill from downtown and the river.
