    I've taken 3 little rides in the last week, Mimi. My big adventure was 1) getting rained on and 2) swearing going up the 2 hills I climb all of the time and thinking I'm going to have start leading "beginner" rides . It's not like I wasn't extremely active over the winter. Oh well, I keep blaming it on the fact that I am riding the bike that I tend to ride in harder gear combinations, even though it actually has more lower gears.
    Looking forward to longer rides today and tomorrow.

    Next time I have an adventure worthy ride I will post for the TE family! Best ride I had two weekends ago. Saw a jackrabbit who stopped for a photo op. He (or she) was a beautiful creature.

    Congratulations on a productive and memorable ride, Mimi. (Finding $10 wasn't bad, either!)

    I briefly considered riding yesterday, but I suspect my first ride is going to be a real eye-opener after the long winter we had. Instead, I took each of my dogs for walks totaling 1.5 miles. I'm so glad the daylight hours are extended again; it gives me options to do additional outdoor activities without having to pick and choose what gets done before dark-or what doesn't get done at all.

    Nice ride report!

    The bf's mother teaches people how to drive muscle cars - that has piqued my interest - did she tell you any more about that? How does one get a job like that!? A private driving school, or at a track?

    they own a private riding school. They teach normal people to drive too. but their specialty is teaching people how to drive those high powered numbers.
