Yosemite Valley by Bike

lifestyle No Comments »

Yosemite Valley by Bike

In our opinion, exploring the valley of Yosemite National Park by bike is the best way to see it. There are miles of clearly marked trails. Many of the trails are paved, and the others are packed dirt. If bikes are not allowed, it is clearly marked.

A place in the park does rent bikes, but not electric bikes. Watch the signs on the trails because some places have a steeper grade, and it is marked that rented bikes aren’t allowed on that part of the trail. In the spring on weekdays, you probably won’t have a problem renting a bike, but it may be a problem on weekends. Also, during warmer weather, it is harder to rent a bike because they are all rented.

The Ahwahnee luxury hotel in the park may rent electric bikes, but their bikes may just be for guests of the hotel. If you have your own bike, you will want to bring it with you to Yosemite. If you don’t have one or cannot bring your own, you can try to rent one.

One of the reasons you will want a bike is because you are able to get as close to the attractions as you get by riding a shuttle. Personally, we loved being at Yosemite at the very end of April and first of May. We weren’t alone, but the park was not crowded. Again, the earlier you arrive, the fewer people you will see.

Some of the paved trails are actually roads that have been closed except to pedestrians and bikes.
Riding through the park is an absolute joy.

We dearly loved having the bikes with us. It was a definite game changer. We rode at least 10 miles each day, and some days we rode more than 15 miles.

Beating the Gridlock | Biking through Downtown Chicago Traffic [4K]

lifestyle No Comments »

Oct 8, 2021 – Downtown Chicago can get pretty congested, particularly during special events. On this evening, some roads were closed for the upcoming Chicago Marathon, leading to a messy commute. Well, it was only messy if you were in a car. Fortunately the congestion was no match for my bicycle and I was able to get from the Loop to South Loop in no time at all. This video is a great demonstration of how efficient a bicycle can be at avoiding traffic congestion.

The length of Central Park full loop is about 6.1 miles. Many cyclists will spent 45-60 minutes on it.

Central Park is an urban park in New York City located between the Upper West and Upper East Sides of Manhattan. It is the fifth-largest park in the city by area, covering 843 acres (341 ha). It is the most visited urban park in the United States with an estimated 38 million visitors annually, and is the most filmed location in the world.

Following proposals for a large park in Manhattan during the 1840s, it was approved in 1853 to cover 778 acres (315 ha). In 1857, landscape architects Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux won a design competition for the park with their “Greensward Plan”. Construction began the same year; existing structures, including a majority-Black settlement named Seneca Village, were seized through eminent domain and razed. The park’s first areas were opened to the public in late 1858. Additional land at the northern end of Central Park was purchased in 1859, and the park was completed in 1876. After a period of decline in the early 20th century, New York City parks commissioner Robert Moses started a program to clean up Central Park in the 1930s. The Central Park Conservancy, created in 1980 to combat further deterioration in the late 20th century, refurbished many parts of the park starting in the 1980s.

Main attractions include landscapes such as the Ramble and Lake, Hallett Nature Sanctuary, the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, and Sheep Meadow; amusement attractions such as Wollman Rink, Central Park Carousel, and the Central Park Zoo; formal spaces such as the Central Park Mall and Bethesda Terrace; and the Delacorte Theater. The biologically diverse ecosystem has several hundred species of flora and fauna. Recreational activities include carriage-horse and bicycle tours, bicycling, sports facilities, and concerts and events such as Shakespeare in the Park. Central Park is traversed by a system of roads and walkways and is served by public transportation.

Its size and cultural position make it a model for the world’s urban parks. Its influence earned Central Park the designations of National Historic Landmark in 1963 and of New York City scenic landmark in 1974. Central Park is owned by the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation but has been managed by the Central Park Conservancy since 1998, under a contract with the municipal government in a public–private partnership. The Conservancy, a non-profit organization, contributes 75% of Central Park’s million annual budget and is responsible for all basic care of the park.

Everything To Know Before Buying A Cycling Helmet

lifestyle No Comments »

In this buyers guide we talk you through everything you need to know when buying a new helmet. There’s many things to look out for and many different features for different types of riders and riding styles.

Helmets can come in road models, commuter models and also leisure models. Each of these will have their own set of specific features. For example road models can either be very aerodynamically efficient, very lightweight or a mix of the two. Commuter helmets can be more robust and may also feature built in lights for extra visibility. Leisure models can often be more affordable and suit riders who just want to enjoy the outdoors and not spend a fortune.

The good news is that any helmet sold will meet a certain minimum safety standard however, some helmets will have additional safety features such as MIPS also known as Multi-Directional Impact System. This allows the helmet to rotate slightly towards the impact easing some of the forces on your head.

If you have any questions about buying your first or next helmet, drop them down in the comments section below!
