"arm" bicycles in Potomac MD
Did anyone see a boat load of cyclists out on River Road today?
Some of them were probably tuning up for the Poolesville race next weekend, but it looked like some of them were shielding (from traffic) a fair number of very tough disabled cyclists riding those arm-driven recumbent rigs. (I was sucking wind on the hills with two good legs; I can't even begin to imagine pulling or pushing myself up those grades with my arms).
Anyway, it looked like a cool event.
