In Which a Moonlight Ride Tops 50 Miles

Looking west across pond on C Avenue at start of ride. Sun going down in clouds.
So I did it—went for a second ride in the evening. It was very buggy, full of gnats wherever there were trees, but it was cooling off nicely. An almost full moon was rising as the sun was setting. I rode over to the Cedar River Trail one more time, heading down to Cedar Lake.

42nd Street--Moon over Cedar Rapids.

The air was still, and both the pond on C Avenue and Cedar Lake seemed almost as smooth as glass. The moon was pretty reflected in the waters, and I tried to take some pictures.

Three early evening views of Cedar Lake.



Anyway, with the morning and evening rides, I went 51 miles today, a good day’s practice.


On the way home, as it grows dark, final view of C Avenue pond.
