Happy Trails, Bob! (Bike trails)
[Bob, I'm understanding you better and better.] Bob Sharpe is a friend I've never met, but we've talked on the phone and support each others' writing and lots of good stuff like that. While I've known Bob, I've lived in Lubbock and I think he's lived in 47 different places. He seems to be on a quest to find a great place for a cyclist to live and ride. His most recent home (and one that looks like it may be THE one) is a tiny town in Iowa that happens to be right on a 100 mile bike trail. Yep, 100 miles of car-less and truck-less getting about on a bike. Imagine that! He writes about it often. Sometimes I read with envy. Sometimes I worry about his sanity. Over the last year, I have traveled very little, but I have been taking a bike with me whenever I can. I've gotten to ride in New Mexico (Cloudcroft and Alamogordo) and more recently I've pedaled part of a Rails-to-Trails path in Quitaque, Texas and a linear park in Mansfield, Texas.
