28.8 miles Freeport bridge loop
So, after looking at Mapquest, I figured out how to take S Land Park to Greenhaven to Pocket and then to Freeport. I swear this loop gets shorter every time I ride it. I expected it to be at least 33 miles, but the above is what my cyclocomputer recorded. Still a pretty ride in spite of the stomach-dropping ride over Freeport bridge, and the wind is never a pleasant surprise on S River Rd.

Ride Report 9/8
21 miles S Land Park to Florin to Riverside & back north on Freeport
Today I intended to do the Freeport Bridge loop by adding on a few miles on S Land Park (as well as the only hills within miles of my house other than overpasses). I get turned around and end up going away from Freeport on Florin and then on Riverside Blvd. Still, it's a pretty ride and there are bike lanes on all the streets except the nasty stretch on Florin. So, when I finally stumble on Freeport and then realize I'm heading north instead of south, I decide to call it a day and head home. I need to consult mapquest.com before I attempt this route again.
