We're about half a mile from Braes Bayou, which has a bike path. Assuming you're willing to deal with street crossings every few hundred yards, you can take that from the med center all the way out to Gessner. Round trip it works out to about 20 miles. It won't be fast, but it's still a ride. I just think of all the starting and stopping as interval training.</p> I actually can ride directly from home.

I'm happy that you're enjoying yourself, too. It sucks that you can't just ride from your house, though. Not that I blame you. I'd be terrified trying to bike on a lot of the streets in Houston. That's one of the things about Santa Barbara that has spoiled me so very much.</p> <p>It sounds like you're having fun.
