As I mentioned in another post I have been cleaning my wifes old bike up (Trek 800 mtb) with the hope that she would ride a little bit. I was totally surprised when I asked her if she would try a short ride on the trail today and she said she would. Keep in mind that she has not been on a bike in 10 years and a couple of months back had some serious life threating health issues. Even though the trail is only 2 miles from our house by riding on safe neighborhood streets I loaded the bike on the car and drove to the trail head. We only rode about a mile and a half and at very low speed but I felt like this was a major advancement. I hope this is a beginning of more and longer rides. We returned home and had a sandwich the I went out for 21.5 more miles. Temp hit 61* F here today. Cold by my standards.
