City cycling from Maplewood to the Mississippi River in St. Louis Missouri USA. Viewers have asked for a longer bike ride video so here you go! I do shorter bike commute videos as well as longer bike rides around my city. My lunch bike ride began on Wabash Avenue, continued onto Jamieson Avenue past Wilmore Park, then Hampton Avenue, continued on Germania Street past River Des Peres, up the Christy Greenway past St. Marcus Park, onto Holly Hills Boulevard past Carondelet Park, and up South Broadway to Bellerive Park with a beautiful view of the Mississippi River. Further north on Broadway following the Mississippi River are more bike lanes, which I might ride sometime in a future video. My bike route back took Holly Hills Boulevard again, then up Christy Boulevard past Leisure Park, onto Eichelberger Street past Francis Park, up McCausland Avenue, and back up Wabash Avenue. I deliberately decided not to take the River Des Peres Greenway, which I have ridden in past videos. I planned out my ride the same day so I got a little lost along the way - always good fun. I used Google Maps Bicycling view to help plan my route. I passed through these St. Louis neighborhoods.... LIndenwood Park St. Louis Hills Boulevard Heights Princeton Heights Holly Hills Carondelet Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neighborhoods_of_St._Louis Total ride time about 1 hour. Total distance about 15 miles. Average speed 15 MPH (real time). Bike: http://bikeblogger.com/?page_id=1230 Video - City Cycling Greenway Parks And Trains!

Note 2: During my ride I noticed a rattling noise over some bumps. I determined my headset was a little loose so I tightened it up after getting home later that night. Note 3: At 19:30 I mentioned going up to St. Marcus in a 'future' video when I meant to say I did it in a past video. I misspeak sometimes as pointed out at 58:05 . ;) Thanks for watching!
