Artscape pictures and comments:
Riding this weekend was great. I live near Prettyboy Reservoir so a friend and I drove to Towson and rode to artscape from there saturday morning. In all my years in baltimore county Ive never ridden downtown and have only owned mountain bikes til now - what a freakin blast!
Thinking it was probably the easiest route we took York/Greenmount down to 31st to Howard which would have been fine if it was smooth pavement. Still couldnt have taken longer than 30 minutes. I'm always amazed how easy it is to get around on a bike. Cars are just so oversized sometimes, especially when theres a few big ol streets in the city which are shut down for weeekend.
Having the bike parking area was a great surprise. We were going to the UB student center and rolled up right in front of a well supervised bunch of barricades dedicated to bikes and some helpful information about riding in and around baltimore.
