| Re: .0, HLO2
Nancy, there is a back way to HLO2 from the center of Hudson. There
are a few ways to get there. Try this:
Instead of bearing right at the rotary, continue across the circle
and continue on 62 past City Hall to a traffic light. There is a
self-serve gas station on the right corner, turn right here pass
immediately through another light and take your next left up a side
street, at the end of that street bear right, take the next left and
continue until you get to an intersection with a road coming in from
the right and a small mini-mall on your left (Forest Ave. Pizza). Take
the right, keep right at the fork and head up the hill to the back
entrance to HLO2 on your right.
Wish I knew the names of all the streets, but I don't live in Hudson!

| FWIW, if your office is in the front (HLO1), when you come in the back
entrance of HLO, go left up the shipping/HL02 road, ride up on the grass
on your left, and alongside the fenced in area til you pop out at the
front of HLO1. (In other words, go around the buildings on the south
side; opposite of the construction). There's a narrow path with a cable
lying in it, but if you're good, you don't need to get off your bike.
I used to go that way even before the construction began... faster than
taking the road on around on the north side. Road bikes have no problem
with it, although the last time I was at HLO, there was some mud where
you pop out.
And also FWIW, I live in Clinton and it takes me just as long to ride
to HLO as to MLO... zigzaging roads, hills, downtown Hudson, and coming
up the back way really eat up time. There's at least a dozen practical
ways to get there: 62 from West Berlin all the way to the Hudson
rotary is the fastest, but 62 in Berlin is pretty narrow and busy.
I like going backroads down to the Northboro rotary, then east into
downtown Hudson.
As for bikes in the building, a friend who doesn't work there but
needed to visit recently had a run-in there. He brought it in; they
complained; he ignored them. But there is an overhang right in front
of the guard station, and if the bike rike isn't there, just drag it
over. Kratz

Right on Forest
First left (to stay) on Forest

| Well, it's definitely a great color, but, I'll need to get a
new lock. Actually, I probably will never leave it unattended,
besides, a lock would add too much wieght! Spring is coming!
