So, today I decided to make the best of the beautiful weather and go for a ride on my Miyata 310.

Here is the route I took:

Those blue markers all correspond to places I stopped to take pictures.

This ride would have been a great time, but with 3.4 miles to get home my front tire tube popped. Note to other riders: when going down a hill on a dirt road and at the bottom is where the pavement begins, be sure to take that pretty easy or you are bound to pop your front tire.

Why did I title this post “My Ubuntu Cycling Sunday Ride?” What makes it Ubuntu? Well I had my with me the whole time which means I had 8 Jaunty CDs and a couple sheets of Ubuntu stickers, just in case!

Anyways, here are some photos, full set here:
