In the morning we went to Tucson's Cyclovia, this is when they close down 5 miles of major roadways so that people can walk, bike or run through the streets leisurely without cars. What an awesome idea! Tuscon started this five years ago to try to get people to use their bikes more. They thought if they got people used to riding on the streets then they would have nothing to fear. It has worked! Tucson is a very friendly bike city with huge bike lanes and places to chain your bike everywhere. There were so many people at the event, we all had a blast. We biked the whole 5 miles, Adam ended up walking/running part of it. We met lots of people and enjoyed seeing the city on a bike.
Next, went to saguaro national park. We went to the west park so it was much smaller but very beautiful. We did the drive thru loop then headed towards California.
I was sad to leave Tuscon, this place will hold a special place in my heart. I will visit again, hopefully soon.
