Tracy Wilkins (the Springfield Cyclist) took time out of his weekend to host a late afternoon/early evening ride out west of town. I had arrived in town to ride the Frisco Highline Trail the next day, and meeting up with Tracy was an excellent bonus.
Architecture is what you get when saving money isn't the primary motivation in a building project.
The fantastically versatile Cross Check
He called it a "sunset ride"
So we took photos
And some of the ride looked like this
But as time passed, the sun fell out of the sky
And the light became more compelling
We delighted in the massive rays
And when it became dark,
we pedaled through the countryside
listening to the sounds
This post is way overdue, but there's no way I'm going to not thank Tracy publicly for a wonderful ride. Go to his post for better sunset photos. Hey buddy, if you can get down to Denton County, Texas, I'll return the favor.
Part 3/4 will be Frisco Highline Trail report.
Hey, nice sunshiny rays, man. I'm sleepy now.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos and light. Interesting thoughts on architecture. Form following function can be art too. My interest is piqued by the Cross- Check, again a certain beauty of form following function. Versatility."...we pedaled through the countryside listening to sounds" Excellent.
