My Grandparents house straddles that highway and my sister and I as kids would take that bike path.
You have to be blitzed outta your mind to end up on the path. I've been invited to do a group ride that consists of the cruiser crowd however I was warned that it consists mainly of bar hopping. I guess when a majority of the group have badges you can drink and ride as much as you like. |
