Nice biked by a small person

We rode some pavement that we don't ride very often.  A south wind made us want to head out in that direction but a complete reconstruction of Raymond Avenue and the Raymond Avenue bridge OVER the railroad tracks on the other side of Deadman's Curve (where Raymond goes UNDER another set of tracks) means that there is a severe shortage of routes that get us more than about two miles south.

We crossed the tracks (under at McMurray and then over at Pierce Butler) using the MUT along Lexington.  This led us to an ash tree for which we have great affection.  The ash trees are just starting to go yellow, the Emily Tree was today starting to show some yellow against another beautiful blue sky.
That maple tree in Kathy and Larrie's yard (they don't live there anymore either) is starting to show some interesting red.

On the way home we passed through a family bicycling on the sidewalk along Hoyt.  In this case bicycling on the sidewalk is totally acceptable as the two members of the family actually on bicycles where about 6 and 4 years old respectively.  The smaller of the two, on one of those tiny kid purple bikes with training wheels remarked to her father (who was on foot) that "that's a pretty cool bike".

So I got "Nice Biked" by a four year old.

I think it is the new tires.  Green, don't you know.

On FirstLOOK I palp tires in a green colorway.

Further Gino saith not.
