Had a Seatte-ite TE ride. Met up with Mimitabby and we rode 16 mi on the Burke Gilman. She was on her new bike, and I was industriously trying to cough up a lung, blow my nose, and readjust my nose ring *all at the same time*!!! So we did a little ride at a comfy pace. Stopped at my favorite bench (97th/Densmore and the BG) and Mimi bought some lemonade at a kids' lemonade stand across from the bench.
Oh my was it HOT. I'm a delicate and tender PNW slug and I was melting.
On the way back we stopped at Recycled Cycles to fondle their wares. And use their bathroom. (Thanks, guys!) There was a free bike outside the shop, and driving home I passed a guy who we'd seen looking at it. He was riding his bike and rolling the freebie Miyata along next to him with one hand. Lots of free wheels on the free rack, too.
Reminder to self: next time it's hot, pack 3 water bottles. 2 isn't enough....
Edit to add that we saw a big black lab riding in a bike trailer with doggles on. Looked like he was having a great time!
