In exercise switch mode, this morning I tried to make up for yesterday’s no run with a bike ride, taking the Arizona canal west through the “perennially under contruction of condo towers” that is downtown Scottsdale. So I am getting my miles while sitting down.

It’s been almost 2 years, and still vrtually impossible to ride a bike safely or even find the same route 2 days in a row from the canal at Camelback and Scottsdale Road to to where the canal crosses Goldwater north of Indian School. That’s what knobby mountain bike tired are for, I guess.

I cruised out passed the very cool Arizona Falls at 56th to a turn around at 48th Street. I would have gone further, but with daylight not peeking out til almost 7, and I did not want to cut too much into the work day.

Tomorrow morning, I’l be forgoing the Team-D 14 mile run, I would have missed it anyhow as I need to be at a friend’s wedding by 10, but I think I can get out and squeeze in a good 2 hour bike ride.
