Riding on Air

Saturday's Uneventful Ride Tracking

Justification for Saturday's Title:  We both rode on properly inflated tires.  No flats or breakdowns.
So, yesterday, Saturday, we decided to ride our trikes on a very important mission:  Ice Cream.
These mostly flat and wide streets in Yuma are a delight to ride.  Again we took back streets to get to the business clusters around Foothills and Frontage Road on the eastern end of Yuma.
When we got to our planned first stop we immediately noticed a big sign that read: "CHOCOLATE"
Which, for some reason, attracted our interest.  Unfortunately for me, my appetite was cooled by the high prices for their gourmet homemade chocolate treats.  We then entered a small pizzeria only to find a too-limited selection, so we investigated the shopping strip further.
Jacque spotted a place labeled "MR. FISH" offering fish & chips, so we took a gander at their menu and decided to alight and partake.
Jacque settled for fried Zucchini and a fish taco.  I spotted a greasy treat that looked good:  Rolled Beef Tacos.  My tacos weren't bad but I could only hold 2 of the 4 served, so I wrapped up the leftovers and put them in the bag on the rack on the back of my trike for later consumption.
Returning home, we rode in various streets just to enjoy the neighborhood, and I rode on around various other blocks to add mileage.  We're not at all sure about the zoning here, but there are million dollar homes stacked in alongside RV's, 5th Wheels, Lots with rental RV's parked inside, and even an occasional warehouse-looking building.  A huge golf course surrounds the area which of course adds to the asking price of all associated properties.  For Rent and For Sale signs abound, along with odds and ends of RV hardware and bicycles, jeeps, etc, also advertised on the streets.  Fun Stuff.
Our feet were getting numb (a common symptom of riding recumbents) by the time we got "home" and my legs were talking to me.
We obviously need to ride more often and get into some sort of shape besides "out".....
