Today's Tracking
Just another short run to the Post Office, Shell Station, and back today. We got off later than planned so it was already getting uncomfortably hot or we would have ridden a longer distance.
We passed and met several other cyclists today including a couple we met at the Shell Station who had ridden clear out here from Albuquerque. They were not the typical professional athletes with the typical disdain of mere mortals who rarely exceed 15 MPH. They were in fact from the Dallas TX area and like to bike when in our area.
The majority of the fellow people-powered machine operators met today were friendly and talkative. Very enjoyable. We also passed a couple of Bernalillo County workers cutting weeds, and they politely stopped their whizzing motors while we passed by so closely. A few minutes later when we arrived at the Post Office Parking lot, they approached us from behind in their county pickup and asked "Did you guys lose a phone?" I realized immediately it must be mine, and sure enough when I checked the "cell phone pocket" of my cargo pants, MY phone was noticably absent. This so called cell pocket has no flap nor other closure on top, so when leaning backwards as I do on the recumbents, it is moving in a circular motion, almost totally upside down. It's a wonder it didn't fall out in our first mile.
Since it was my treasured new Iphone 4, I was doubly grateful to them for chasing us down to return the phone.
