Cycling the Erie Canal – test ride today

Posted on by M. Coriale

We went out for a really nice ride today. After church, we loaded up the new panniers (aka saddle bags), mixed up some Gatorade, put sunblock on, and went out to see the local scenery in Webster, NY (“where life is worth living” according to the town motto).

I wanted to dry run blogging without my MacBook, too. Somehow, I forgot to take any pictures today, so I will have to try that later.

We rode a nice bike trail for about 12 miles, then decided to go north to Lake Ontario. The weather was beautiful and, as usual, the company was great. We took a pretty leisurely pace – we are not in training mode anymore. It is time to enjoy the scenery now!

Here is a map of our progress today.

I am a husband, father, and Catholic deacon. I love the Church, my family, Sacred Scripture, and riding my bike! My favorite type of riding is long-distance bike touring. I hope to ride across the US some day.

  1. Another warm-up ride today; cycled 20 miles around Webster. Cycled past the home I grew up in and a few other sites. Weather was spectacular!
