This morning as I get ready to head out for Kentucky, the wind is out of the east! I guess I’m just blessed that way. Oh well, it’ll just add an hour or more to the trip.

Normally, on my local rides I try to ride cross-ways of the wind or head out against it knowing (hoping) that I’ll come back with it. Maybe tomorrow, for my return trip, it will still be out of the east.

I ride in protest of high gasoline prices. I ride by choice and hope to encourage others to do likewise. My personal commute is less than 5 miles each day, both ways - to two jobs. I would like to think if my commute were 10 to 15 miles per day - each way - that I would still cycle it, I know some who do. In order to put my pedals where my mouth is, so to speak, I finally have the time to make my planned trip from Shelbyville Indiana to Hebron Kentucky.

Check out the route here.

…and join me in riding in protest… or at least to save some gas money and get a little exercise while you save!
