My Ride


MY RIDE every day is almost 3 miles from the Flat to Campus. It is not a direct route, as downtown is between my flat and the University, so the easier path is circumventing the centro city.


The RUSH our traffic from downtown is a mix of walkers, bicycles, motor bikes, cars, vw vans, pick-ups, busses, and trucks. On my ride south to get the bike path, there are three bus passenger pick-ups to keep an eye upon.


TRAFFIC MIX is my favorite part of the bike journey. On the bike path, there are variations to the theme. In this case, horse drawn wagons are common, carrying needed sand, bricks and rocks to locals for building.

I love the picture of you on your bike...neat perspective. I can't believe that horse and cart are still used. I guess once effective, always effective.

I think it's great that the city planners and residents still accept/allow for all modes of transportation; pretty cool, actually.
