We rode 8 miles!!

Grand Rapids and Comstock Park have miles of bike trails. On Monday we took our bikes over to Roque River Park and rode the 4 miles to Rockford. This charming small town is located on the bank of the Roque River. We had lunch at Vitale's Pizza which is actually a combination of Italian and Mexican food. Gary had pizza and I had a combination Mexican platter. Yum. After lunch we visited several shops located near the river. We also walked down to the river park and enjoyed the view. Two white swans and a duck were enjoying the sunshine. After walking for a bit, we got back on the bikes and traveled the 4 miles back to the truck. It was a wonderful way to spend a few hours. Exercise, good food and good friends..what more do you need!!!
It was an excellent outing...but boy was my butt sore!!! I guess it just means we'll have to do this more often.
