I'm by no means a competitive biker, nor a fast one. I'm also not in the century club - the farthest I've bicycled in one day is 50 miles, and that was several years ago. Prior to my skating injury, I did take frequent 40 mile rides during the summer months. There are several nature trails in the Aurora area, and one begins in Aurora and goes north along the Fox River for about 40 miles. There are two advantages to a trail along a river: it tends to be pretty level, and it has quite a bit of shade. This one also has several water fountains along the way, and some very nice scenery. I didn't get a chance to ride it in 1995 due to my knee injury, but hope to be back at it in 1996.
