Not bad for a moving shot using my camera phone. This is out at River Legacy Park in Arlington on the back trail. I was going nearly 20 mph when I took this shot.  
BTW, I passed 1000 miles on my Cannondale (road bike) the other day. Took me 58 hours, 44 minutes over about 3 months to do it. Probably could have done it a few weeks earlier if it wasn't so rainy here. Anyway, that works out to a 17.02 mph average, not bad considering I just started riding again in January after a 25 year layoff.

Damn Scott, that's not too shabby!
I'm going to have to invest in a nice speedometer for my bike, I'm always wondering how far I've ridden after a good ride. | |

Good job Scott!
I really need to get back on my bike too. Maybe next spring I'll get a new road bike, that will motivate me... lol

Guess I won't be riding that path for a while. The non-stop rain has flooded the park out.

I too returned to cycling 5 years ago after 25 years and those first 1000 miles gave me a sense of accomplishment.

Yeah, well bad enough I am losing $1000+ a week in business but people are dying because of the flooding. Every time I hear them say that, it is all I can do to keep from throwing a brick through the TV screen.
