The Constitution Challenge

Today is bike day.
It is getting cold and dark in the morning.
I decided to bring the bike to work.
Since I have a short day, I can do my ride before it gets dark.

The original plan was to take Constitution all the way east to Tramway,
then turn south and take the bike path by I-40.
From there I can cross the overpass by Los Altos golf course, get to Moon and back to Constitution.

But someone reminded me of the problem with the bike path by the freeway.
Due to the presence of homeless people in that area,
there are broken glasses on the path.
I noticed that the last time I was there.

So, the plan changed.
I still took the challenge and went up Constitution.
It was indeed a challenge.
I need to do it more often.

When I reached Indian School, I turned west.
I took the bike path by Indian School and Chelwood.

I took the path all the way to Indian School and Moon.
I took a few pictures at the park.








From Moon, I turned south and got to Constitution.
From there, I got back to the parking lot.


Over all, it was a good ride.
I still do not like the bike path. For me, trying to navigate through those yellow poles
can be challenging.
I am glad that I did the ride. I was sore from the flu shot yesterday.
Next ride, bosque bike path with David!
