Walking rules! It does creates some spoke card placement issues, though – imaginary bike fail!? If pedaling around a bit hits your must-do list, and you want to go for a short ride, let me know.

I walk to work every day and I don’t even OWN a bike (my brother does, but I’m not commandeering it to bike all the way to Newmarket without previous experience biking in this area).

Good point – texting wasn’t an issue when I was riding Rte 4 – yikes.

Twombley is the west side of Bauneg Beg.

People drive like idiots on Twombley – and there are no shoulders to speak of.

Route 4 isn’t terrible – it’s just the texting/swerving drivers that would give me the willies.

Rte 4 isn’t too bad – I used to ride it quite a bit. Its saving grace is a w-i-d-e shoulder allowing you a bit of distance from the car driving pinheads. I’d have to look at a map, but I’ll bet if you wanted to you could take a nice ride on the west side of Bauneg Beg.

I’ve wanted to get a bike for awhile now.

First I wanted to bike to work. 45 minutes by car each way kind of precluded that.

Now I work at home. So I suppose I can get on the bike, then get back off – and I’m at work.

The only other issue with biking is where I live. Twombley Road and Route 4 are both a bit of a death trap. They’re also the only way to get from here to there (wherever there is).

Someday. Probably a wheelchair.
