Wally World and Ollie food produced a return trip load of 49 lbs for the return trip. It was a pleasant day, sunny and mid 50’s moderately heavy traffic. Total distance of 5.71 miles in just 30 minutes! Ollie, my dog, agreed that it was a good effort.

More shopping tomorrow. Weather permitting a 15-20 mile ride into the countryside beforehand.
