[BIKE] The End of Summer

Summer has technically been over since late last month, but it only truly felt like it ended this past week. The days of warm lakeside bike rides are over and a harsh Winter is a-comin'. My bike has remained abandoned in the garage and is not likely to come back out any time soon. This season I rode farther than I had ever ridden (1,198 miles) and to places I have never explored, even some in my own backyard.

This being said, I would like to share some of my favorite photographs and sites from a very eventful bicycling season, even some from the earlier, colder months.
