Well I wasn't really sure how to get on the bike, and I don't seem to be quite as flexible as I was 15 years ago, but I tried to swing my leg over the seat, but it just didn't quite make it. Good thing nobody was watching. I bought some bike pants from Terry and I got all this good padding, so I was not in any discomfort on that end.
But dang we went (well I went TH might have gone further) about 6 miles, and biking out it was fine, but coming back it was either uphill or into the wind or maybe both, my legs actually got a little tired. I am thinking maybe the recumbent would be good, just for the spinning.
I am going to do Sawyer Camp on Tuesday. Just to see how it goes. I will be all by myself, but you know I always will have a cell phone handy, and maybe next week I can talk TH into do the Iron Horse Trail. One can only hope.

We went on BOTH a bike ride AND a walk. I used my old deerskin padded shorts, but I still was sore.
ReplyDeleteT3 points out that I peddle like a bowlegged man - we'll, I am a bowlegged man, so nothing new here.
My neck hurts & I need a mirror to see behind us.
I'll be sore tomorrow. T3 is a beast!!!! She went up & down the trail like a mountain goat - I had to have Tolar help pull me up the trail.
At least neither of us fell off our bikes.
You did it! You rode! I went for my second ride of the season and almost got off the bike mid-ride. Then I had to chase down some show boater. Getting back into it is hard, girl! Gut it out!
