1. Gorgeous.
Now you should sell your pics to Outdoor Life or Hallmark or something.
Good job.

None of those places look familiar. :-)

3. Cycling is such a great way to watch wildlife
We are already getting bits of fall colors in Ohio. Select sugar maples are showing red. Sometimes one main branch of the tree will show red while the rest of the tree is still green. It reminds me of a wild hairstyle with one patch of hair bleached or colored.

Other trees are showing a silvery-green color, so that you can see definition in a hillside. Beautiful!

4. Beautiful pictures!
Where were you? It looks like my farm, especially the pond shots.

6. What is this mystery location?
I have a feeling that it is not the Chicago lakefront bike path.

8. No
It was Northwest Indiana. I did all three bike trails for a total of 70 miles. Today I'm going on the North Branch Trail and to the Chicago Botanic Garden.

9. You make me want to get a bike
It would be great exercise, great transportation, and in NYC one can find beautiful sights like these. Where to keep it, though? It's not like I have oodles of room in my apartment.

10. Just get a rack and hang it on the wall
If you get a nice enough bike, it *is* a work of art.

It is great exercise and life definitely looks different on the back of a bike.

12. Terrific pics, prolesunited!
Nice to see a bit of open country.

This is a really cool time of year -- end of summer, first days of fall just around the corner.

Thanks for posting! :kick:
