They keep the playset up for you?
@ Shoog.
BTW, is it just me does Beno look a bit like Antonio Banderas in that pic Angel just posted?
BTW, Tlong, do you train for cycling? Or is it just a hobby?
It is mostly a hobby, but I have to train for some of the cycling events I'm doing. Portland is the most "cycling friendly" city in the country. It's a nice way to get some exercise and view scenery.
^That's pretty cool, there's really no where around where I live to "cycle" and the only scenery I'd see is tall buildings and traffic.
However, I've always wanted to train myself for some sort of "mini-marathon" even though I get huffy after a half hour on the treadmill.![]()
I recommend that you stop smoking.
What about big-ass Fairmount Park?
I don't. I just hate sweating

At last count, there were over 215 miles of scenic, recreation trails in Fairmount Park. There's a trail for everyone, from sidewalks, to off-road trails, to paths through the woods to walkways along a creek or river. So, don your sneakers, bike helmet, pedometer and head for the trail nearest you.
To improve your trail experience, please make sure to review the rules and regulations. Keep an eye out for markers which let you know who's permitted where. If you plan to use your bicycle or mountain bike on the trail, please fill out a Trail User Permit.
Information at your fingertips: Don't miss the new 25-mile Schuylkill River Trail which runs from downtown Philadelphia (making use of the Fairmount Park trails and the Manayunk Canal Tow Path) to Oaks in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. On a sunny, weekend day you'll see that many are taking advantage of this opportunity to get some exercise. For more information, including maps about the Schuylkill River Trail and its future development please click here.
For more information on the bicycle scene in Philadelphia, check of the city's Bicycle Network by visiting www.phila.gov/streets . For a download of a Philadelphia Bicycle Map, please click here for page one and here for page two.

Ehh, a little dangerous by yourself at certain times of the day.![]()
Actually, I PennyPack park is closer to me, I used to go jogging there a few years ago in the mornings. I don't even own a bike anymore....are they expensive these days? Maybe I should take up cycling since the running thing isn't working out.
Tlong, that is a sweeeet view your parents have. Is that in Portland?
Actually, I know.
A girl who used to work here was killed jogging there a few years back.
Wissahickon Creek is really nice, unfortunately it's a little far for me.
Gee thanks, then what the heck are you doing suggesting I jog there?
You said bicycle.
Also, if you had said yes, I was going to say "Are you crazy?!"
Good I think I take whatever you say with a grain of salt.
It is a Portland address, but is on the outskirts of the city. They have 40 acres on the top of Skyline Ridge. Very nice place with a view of Mt St Helens and the Columbia River.
Bikes can be expensive, anywhere from $200 to $2,000. Depending on what you want. Mine cost me about $700 about 2 years ago. It is a hybrid bike, which means it has some characteristics of both a mountain bike and a road bike.
wow, you have pics of their house?
