So I've been a bad little blogger and have been sitting on a bunch of new photos, but between regular work, freelance work, and marathon training, I have been SLAMMED! So I'm just dropping five photos in one day. Not to worry, I am still taking pictures, so look out for lots of new Chicago shots soon! Meanwhile, check out how cool Bordeaux France is. It is a fabulous city for cycling. It has about 1.1 million people, and is fairly flat. There are long stretches of pedestrian only streets that allow bikes, and have a street level train. Of course the wine is good too, but because of the name recognition, its a little more pricey than the rest of France (where wine is seriously dirt cheap!).
