Our final regularly scheduled ride for the season took us to Stauf's in German Village, where we wandered aimlessly down the alleyways. On our way there we stopped by the old, forgotten train mural in the Short North that's been covered up for years. Keep your eyes peeled for one-off rides in the off-season, and check out the other local rides like Wednesday Night Ride (that also meets at Thompson Rec) and Friday Night Ride (Topiary Park). Thank you to everyone who's showed up for a ride this year for making Cryodrome so fun. See you next season!

We ran errands on this edition of Cryodrome. First, we got Tessa’s favorite coffee. Second, we stopped by Paradise Garage for Anna. Then went to Prologue bookshop. We scoped the view from the Goodale Convention Center parking garage and from the garage on Pearl and Long. And we missed the rain entirely. See you next week for the final regularly scheduled ride!

Maybe one of my favorite Cryodromes to date. Stopped by Happy Little Treats first to celebrate their reopening. Then we squiggled through back alleys and saw the Italian kitty. We climbed another parking garage that's been on my bucket list, and we were pleasanly surprised at the lack of gate arms. We got caught in Crew traffic on the trail on our way to Winans in German Village. On our way back we swung by Spoonful Records on State and picked up a rarity. These photos were taken on my old Insignia HDDV HDMI. See you next week!

All aboard the Wabash Cannonball to Kerouac Kafe on this edition of Cryodrome. We went so fast we arrived an hour before we even departed.

Another 'Drome, another parking garage. The roads were more decent than we expected. Stopped by the perennial classic holiday train at the main library as well.

Thank goodness we got a snowy 'Drome. Amazing ride with some of our favorite people. Stopped at Winan's, popped inot the park, and nearly climbed a parking garage but stopped to avoid security. See you next week!
