| You can't keep orthopedic patients off their bikes. |
I had a physical therapy appointment one morning this week. IT band and knee issues. . . .
Given the number of world-class athletes who train in Flagstaff for the benefits of the high-altitude, it's no wonder that the Summit Medical Center has bike parking at the front of the building. Uhmmm. . . I'm not among the world-class athletes by the way. Still, I appreciate the accommodation.

| Alas, lovely but far too short. |
After my PT session, which included some much needed deep tissue massage, I decided to take a different route home and found a part of the multi-use path that I'd never seen or used before. It's too short and stops prematurely without merging into the bike lane that sit above it on Turquoise Drive but I had to take a picture because it may be the loveliest part of the Flagstaff Urban Trail System.

Am I wrong to suggest that perhaps every stretch of the urban trail should look exactly like this? I think not because aesthetics matter.
Then I headed over to Flag Bike Revolution to ponder the matter at their coffee bar. Bikes and coffee. Whoever came up with that combination is a god damn genius.

My ITB bothers me a lot. I think I got my problems from distance running. I'm trying the barefoot running thing now. How did you injure your ITB?
Chafed: It could have been tweaked when I pulled myself up after an easy fall while skiing this December. I used to do a lot of distance running but I'm down to 10 -15 miles a week total. Ugh. Haven't been able to run in months so the knee issue is really bugging me.
Meli: It's good to hear from you. Thought of you as I posed the coffee pic actually. Hopefully, the next time I'm in SF we can have that cup.
