Cycling-visiting family & friends

[shootingstar]

Yesterday I learned that 2 nephews (10 yrs. & 8) cycled 50 kms. on the MS ride with their parents. It's always so cool to hear cycling stories.

As for the visiting sister now, we plan to take easy on flat short route..for her, she is having a neck problem where she needs to be vigilant of how she moves. THis sister is quite active --one of the jogging sisters.

Good thing my bikes to loan, put a person more upright. We'll see.

A now, I learn that another sister and her hubby bought and use folding bikes. THey both already had bikes..which they rode occasionally (he more frequently since he biked to the research lab where he works that's not too far from home). They wanted the convenience of biking for trips plus taking their kayaks for times out of the water.

Also heard last night of another person who we know, has done several bike touring trips, has also bought a folding bike to enable him to transport his bike more freely for his European trips.
