Where I am at on my imaginary ride of the TransAmerica Bike route: between Ashland and Mineral, Virginia.
Summary: This was a very fun ride. I got a life from my wife to near NW 63rd & Lincoln. I then worked my way south on Lincoln to the state capitol area (where there was a walk for sickle cell awareness going on). I next stopped to take a few pictures at the garden of Joy Mennonite Church, and then rode through the beautiful Lincoln Terrace Neighbhorhood and then onward through Eastside OKC to the NEOKC Farmer’s Market where I bought some great stuff.
After that I made it to the a nice bike trail that runs past the OKC Railway museum, then through the Lincoln Park Golf course, then past the Firefighters museum, Remington Park (horse track/casino), OKC zoo and the Science Museum.
From there I braved a trail that was under construction for a bit, then worked my way over the Nichols Hills/Classen Curve area, then to Lake Hefner. I went around the lake, then onward to home.
