This morning I got out at 7:00 with the hope of doing a longer ride—and actually carried through with it today.😇
I rode three consecutive round trips to Marsh Park, and at the end of the third I rode to Meijer because I wanted to get a card for my niece, who has recently moved out of state. So this gave me a ride of 28.3 miles, in 3:23—not a very good pace, but I just kept plugging away.
As I was leaving Meijer and unchaining my trike, an older man (eighty-ish .... he was wearing a golf hat and had a trimmed white beard that made him look like Colonel Sanders) asked me, "How do you like that recumbent?" So I fished out the card I had prepared about the trike and why I can't talk. He read it and found it "Cool!" and he was also impressed when I told him (with voice and fingers) that I had ridden 27 miles so far this morning.
