On Sunday morning, I rode my bike out to New Town St. Charles.
Have you ever been there? It's super weird. As I approached, I commented that I felt like I was riding into Stepford. All the houses were a little too well-laid-out, it was all a little too planned.
It was fairly early, about 8:00 in the morning, and there were very few people out. The longer I was there, the more it felt like I left Stepford and entered into an episode of the Twilight Zone. So, so strange.
In theory, the planned community seems like a good idea, but I was all too happy to ride away from it.
