If you want to check out events/shops, things to do just visit the chamber of commerce website.<BR/>http://www.yellowspringsohio.org/index.html<BR/><BR/>I forgot to mention I liked your photographs.<BR/><BR/>happy biking<BR/>regards corrinejafabrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04490900607853203086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5678184048449773605.post-50794419483008347612008-08-04T20:42:00.000-04:002008-08-04T20:42:00.000-04:00Oh, forgot to list that part.I was on the rail tra...Oh, forgot to list that part.<BR/><BR/>I was on the rail trail all the way up until W Jackson Rd. I'm not sure how much further one can go, but definitely that far. I did have to take 68 south for a very short distance, but that's the road that Young's is on so it's ratehr unavoidable.<BR/><BR/>Hey, I'm up for riding at any not-faster-than-me speed.Lazy Bike Commuterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06186544907063119814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5678184048449773605.post-994749363463133932008-08-04T20:26:00.000-04:002008-08-04T20:26:00.000-04:00Fellow Lazy Fellow:My son and I did Stillwater, Ma...Fellow Lazy Fellow:<BR/><BR/>My son and I did Stillwater, Mad, Creekside, and #1 (whatever Xenia North is called) that Sunday slowly from 1:00-3:00 as my sons bike broke. Had to call Mom SAG to get him. Returning, I averaged 11.76 MPH. I averaged 15 in the short Tour D'Burg 26 mile ride. If that is not too slow, we can do something.<BR/><BR/>Does anyone have an answer to the Young's Trail access question? I am hearing that you must use SR68 north of YS.

It looks like it's probably a nice place to visit, sometime I might hit up that Peach Grill that had all the bikes in front.<BR/><BR/>Jodycb:<BR/>Yeah, I still can't get over how nice it is. My former home had one separated trail, and it didn't really go anywhere. I'm surprised Dayton isn't certified bike-friendly, but it looks like they're trying. Maybe I should go to a few meetings and get to know some people.<BR/><BR/>Hopmaster:<BR/>Did you follow the Creekside trail all along my route? We probably passed each other, I was in transit on the way back from maybe 2:30-4. A ride would be cool, I'm always up for meeting people. I don't get to do anything much for the next week though since being on call at work keeps me tethered to my computer.Lazy Bike Commuterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06186544907063119814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5678184048449773605.post-12826374241090651752008-08-04T18:40:00.000-04:002008-08-04T18:40:00.000-04:00I did close to the same ride Sunday.

My first half century!<BR/><BR/>Please consider a blog reader ride.<BR/><BR/>Also, going North from Yellow Springs, do you stay on the trail or go up SR68?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5678184048449773605.post-41924843258503595112008-08-04T13:16:00.000-04:002008-08-04T13:16:00.000-04:00That looks like a great area to ride.

Honest!<BR/><BR/>WE get a lot of visitors who dress like hippies and think they can come here and openly smoke pot (and some try), and they are the one's that seem to be noticed by other visitors. Hence reinforcing an age old and rather tiresome stereotype. Our police department is very aggressive about dealing with drugs. I personally don't know anyone that is a stoner, and most of the original ys hippies are so old the most thing that is hip about them is hip problems lol!<BR/><BR/>We are a community that is very diverse and what it might seem is not what it is. I hope you don't let a perception colour your thoughts to the point of doing all the hardworking and decent folks in yellow springs a disservice.<BR/><BR/>respectfully yours<BR/>corrine who is not a hippie and not a stonerjafabrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04490900607853203086noreply@blogger.com
