Sunrise Riding in Bristol

So I work from 4PM to 12:30AM. I usually roll into my apartment around 1AM. I have been having a hard time actually getting to bed before sunrise most mornings. So sometimes I head out at sunrise for a “midnight snack”. Last week I did just that, riding to stop-and-shop for a few groceries at around 7AM. I brought along my little digital point-and-shoot camera.

Bob, my trusty hybrid commuter

no bike rack at the stop-and-shop. So I used their empty garden display rack.

It was turning out to be a beautiful morning so after I got some groceries I stopped at dunkin fatpills for some breakfast, then earned it by riding up the hill to Page Park to eat it.

there were ducks.

It’s amazing how nice weather can change a quick trip to the grocery store into a 2-hour bike adventure. After I finished breakfast I ended up going farther up the hill from the pond in the park…

Till I found probably one of the highest points within the park:

extreme commuter bike!

Now some people might cringe at the thought of big hills, and I admit I was spoiled in Rochester by the relative lack of them. But since coming to the hills of Connecticut, I am re-discovering the fundamental truth. If you go up, you get to go down :)
