Spinnage

My weekly ride with triathletes have made me realize the technique of my pedal stroke has become more of a hammer than a butterfly.  Goal for this winter = bring back my cadence and grace. Many bikes to fix in the morning.  Making the 1x1 back to a mountain bike instead of a cruiser, fixing up the Casseroll with its rain shoes.

Downtown Mooresville

[gallery order="DESC" columns="4" orderby="post_name"] Friday morning I got my list of things I needed to get done, loaded up my Minnehaha pack and headed off to old downtown Mooresville.  Downtown Mooresville is exactly what you think of little old town.  The train runs through the center city, there are beautiful historic buildings lining main street.  A coffee shop that old guys hang out at and talk gossip as folks drive past.  I haven't been able to walk around the "Strip" yet.  I have my places to stop like Bank of America to deposit money, LKN Sk8 to check out their kids decks, La Patisserie for a latte or delicious desserts and then back home. Today I took a side road off the main street and it ended me on this gorgeous southern street with flowers covering all the houses. The houses were ranging from little 1940's bungolows to huge historic homes with eve's and widows watches.  Unfortunately I only had my long lense so I couldn't capture the long street well but I will be back soon.
