New route bike to work_1

I successfully explored a new route (yellow) to bike from home to the office this morning. Although it was a longer route than the old (orange), the biking experience on the new route was much more enjoyable. Even though the bike path on W. Shore Dr. is fabulous within the orange line, I can't avoid the busy traffic on Park St., which is not a biker friendly section to me. By taking the new route, the bike path on John Nolen Dr. is safe and beautiful. Much less traffic it is from Lake Monona to Lake Mendota. I decide to make it through State Street, Terrace, and the lakeside bike path (the one from Memorial Union/Terrace to Picnic Point), and to park my bike by the lake. Therefore, I just need to walk a little hill up to my office, Van Hise Hall.

It is a little, but awe-inspiring, discovery. I am thereby excited to bike to work every sunny day.
