Errand Run - Route #006

Bicycles are wonderful tools. You can use them for exercise. You can be more environmentally friendly by using them for errands. You can use them commuting. The even look impressive in your office. I had to run to the bank today. Here was my very direct route. Mind you there was no screwing around or joy-riding today. Just straight and back to work.

I found another great North-South street today. N Grove Ave was a nice quiet street with little to no traffic. I took me from NW 39th St to The Lake Hefner Golf Course.

Also, I think I really like riding through Warr Acres. The neighborhood streets are bit bumpy and old but the neighborhood is nice, clean and quiet. I like it better than my short trip through Nichols Hills. Nichols Hills was busy the one time I took a trip through it. Must have been landscaping/house-cleaning/college-kids-in-town/yuppie day.

Route #006
Distance: 8-9? (total hopeful guess)
Travel Time: ~45 minutes (first time, with a stop at the bank)
Level of Difficulty: (1:easy - 5:hard) 2



Some notes on the ride:
1) N Grove Ave - very quiet, safe street to take North or South
2) N. Cherokee Pl & NW Expressway - very easy stoplight crossing that runs right into the Lake Hefner bike trail

Trouble spots:
1) NW 63rd and N Grove Ave - was a little busy, not bad though

Cheers
