Biking for me now encompasses a bicycle in two sites.  In an attempt to having more time with our granddaughter, we now have an apartment near the children and grandchild.  It is in a great location as the public library is across the street from our building which is great for Veronica and a bike trail behind the library.  I now have a bike in the new apartment along with biking gear.  The bike is  same one I gave my son, which doesn't  meet his needs and the one I rode cross the U.S. I actually like my old bike as it has a triple set and my current one has a double.  The weather has been great for biking but the weather people tell us we are in a drought.  Sooner or later we will get plenty of rain but in the meantime lets enjoy great biking weather.  Still looking for the weather that permits me a ride to Champaign.  Later.
