thanks for the routes folks!
I should add that I am a pretty confident cyclist and I don't mind taking some dirt trails and busy roads if needed. I just want to avoid any suicidal roads. I am also thinking of taking my mountain bike some time and riding to the Greenbelt and riding singletrack part of the way. that might be more work than it's worth just to get to work but it could be fun.

I am buying a house in the neighborhood, just a few blocks from Dick Nichols Park, and I plan to ride to work downtown most days. it should be about ten miles. I am sure there are a few possible routes and I am not timid in traffic, but I would like the most direct route that is reasonably safe. any ideas? I would want to get into town through Lamar.

On-One Pompino: medium size frame, Surly Crosscheck fork, hand built wheels with an All City track hub, canti brakes, Bontrager Hardcase 32mm slick tires, 39x17 gearing with a freewheel (can be set up fixed), drop bars with Cane Creek levers, etc. I built this bike from the ground up and it makes a great bike for short distances. It makes a great commuter or cyclocross bike, but the frame is single-speed only! I have been venturing out further lately and would like to trade up for something in a similar size with more gears.
Pedals, rack and panniers not included.
