Yesterday Jake and I went to Annmarie and Steve's to ride our bikes with them around the Aurora Reservoir, which is just a mile east of their home. It was a beautiful day to do it we thought but we would soon find out different. The wind started to pick up just as we left the house but by the time we arrived at the reservoir it was very gusty. It wasn't to bad as long as the wind was behind you but when you had to ride into it that was another story. The last few miles were the worst. As we were making are way over the dam the wind was so fierce we were getting sprinkled with water and sometimes sad hitting our legs. Ouch! The last turn on the reservoir was right into the wind it was so hard to ride we ended up walking our bikes to the end. Our whole bike ride was over 10 miles it doesn't sound to tough but with the wind added in, it made for a long trip. Next time Steve said we need to do in earlier in the day.
When we arrived back to their home, mom and dad were waiting for us. After we freshened up, we all went to On the Border for dinner. It tasted so good after a long bike ride.

Sounds like fun! Glad you guys had a great time together!
If I lived there I wonder if I would have been invited to go on this bike ride...I understand that to go on a bike ride you have to have a bike...which I don't have (yet), but still, we are trying to weigh out where we will move when we become homeless and we hear Denver is nice! :)
