I tried to stay in 30-15 all the way home. I had to dump down to 1st gear only one place, on a bit of trail where the momentum dies just where it gets technical, and stopped in a few others to let the bum ticker settle down. But overall it was a really good ride. I’m surprised how well I did. I’m stronger than I thought.

I did give a driver a scare at an intersection... my fault but it wasn’t that close.

The chess set is gone.
