3 years agoEast and then south of where you’re staying. The Rancho Vistoso area, north yet of Tangerine and west of Oracle, has some awesome hills (I know, you love those!). We rode up 77 to the little town of Oracle once upon a time. Long climb, not steep, and a great sail down!
Do go for breakfast at the Baja Cafe, on Campbell just south of River. Yummo!
I am soooo jealous!! Enjoy, enjoy!
From another journal that site was referred to as...The Society for the Upholding of Purity in Cycling.
3 years agoSue,
I'd be interested if you have any favorite rides to share. Tomorrow I think I'll go south on the Santa Cruz bike path - see how far I get before I get lost. I like the Julian Wash section - but now we are on the north. What is your favorite area?

I was banned in the most recent kerfuffle. I should have left on basic morals long before that . . . it was a tough decision, members felt like my family after 15 years there. It was hard, but right.

Hi Kelly,
I'm curious why you switched from the other journal site.

Such familiar routes and roads and bike paths! Tucson is a fabulous cycling city, our all time favorite especially when it’s cold at home! And I agree about the narrow Canada Del Oro section of The Loop. But oh well, when the sky is blue and the temps are warm, who’s complaining?

3 years agoI’m with you girl! Don’t think city riding is for me. I’d much prefer a road route from here to there. Would love it if you guys struck out on a road trip. Donno if I’d find it fun just to ride in the city every day of my vacation. Nevertheless your prose makes reading about it fun.

Two bags worth we did have in panniers on our bikes. The extra bag came back on the airplane this trip.
We tend to hoard food also. There’s nothing worse than a calorie starved cyclist.
I’ve seen any number of Bike Fridays. Lots of couples on BFs, interestingly. At least 2-3 couples a day. None yet that I could identify as you two!
Wow! 52 miles. Congrats!
3 years agoThat’s the kind of routes I like.
3 years agoWow! How did you manage that? When we’re touring we don’t take much bu we have our car loaded. Part of the problem is I keep buying non perishable food.
