I have the weekend to myself with the boys off at Convivial. My only two goals for the day were - get out the bike and take advantage of the lovely weather (done), read a few chapters of Moby Dick on my iTouch (done), and watch "Milk" so I can send it back to Netflix. The bike ride was lovely, except that I seem to have misplaced my bike computer. I'm pretty sure it didn't get stolen this time, as the bike was locked in the bike shed, but it's not there. Where on earth could it be? I might have taken it off and put it in my pocket or something when I went into a restaurant, but what pocket? It's been so long since I used the bike I can't even remember when it was. I suppose it's possible that it got knocked off during transport, but Richard has the van so I can't look. Anyway, since I didn't have an odometer I used Map My Ride to figure out the mileage: 11.3 miles. I'd estimated 12, so pretty close.

Cedar Lake Trail Cedar Lake Trail This is right where the trail branches - continue on to Hopkins or head on down the west side of Cedar Lake (which is what I did).
Cedar Lake Cedar Lake This is my favorite lake in the metro area. I should come here more often.
The Point, looking across at Hidden Beach The Point, looking across at Hidden Beach And this used to be my favorite place to swim, before the lake got clogged with milfoil. That was so long ago that this wasn't even a legal swimming beach at the time. Now it has a lifeguard stand and everything.
