Government Employee Cycling Day

Or better known as Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Even with all the camping, I was able to get in two good rides in over the long weekend. Both of them were with Big Dave and Justin. One was on Sunday after the dreadful Cowboy game.  We are all blessed to be employed, but we are also all governmental employees that gave us Monday off to ride.

On Monday, we did the normal downtown Fort Worth route, with a swing by Starbucks and Carol’s work. (She had to work) It is fun to cruise around downtown on the bike when everyone else has to work. On the way home we stopped by and visited another cycling buddy, Dennis Farris.

Dennis fascinates me, because he is an actual artist that makes his living being an artist. It gave us a quick opportunity to learn about his big adventure as one of the Artist in Residence at Zion National Park. How people end up with these opportunities is beyond me, but more power to Dennis in finding them.

It was a rather uneventful ride, but those are needed as well.
