Today's Short but Effective APRS/GPS tracking via Ham Radio
Jacque and I have been sorely missing rides on the trike so we loaded it up on the roof-rack and took it down to the civilized road and pedaled up to the Post Office and then on up the rest of the short way to the Triangle Shell Station for a short soda/lemonade break.
We were shocked, SHOCKED, to find how out of shape we were and spent most of our westbound / uphill time in grandma gear wishing there were a few more lower gears than that. BUT, we made it up the looooooonnng hill to the Post Office and then on up the last half mile or so to the Triangle Shell station where we normally consume a refreshing beverage. Lemonade for Jacque and Diet Coke for me.
By the time we saddled up and started for home it was clouding up again and getting CHILLY. Especially so since going back toward home is largely and wonderfully downhill, but at almost 30 MPH it REALLY got cool-ish.
But we made it fine, and have a renewed determination to keep more regular at riding so we don't run out of steam so soon.
