Sunday Ride
We took a bike ride from Kenmore to Redmond and back this afternoon. 25 miles or so. My first bike ride in . . . well . . . twenty years?
It was quite fun. It feels like I coasted most of the way, both directions. Just a few pumps and then just float along the path, the wind in my face.
But I'm sore in some unusual places. . .
And a couple miles from the car, on our return, the bike chain snapped. Luckily, a bike shop was just a half mile back, in Bothell. I scootered along while C & C rode.
The mechanics fixed the bike with no troubles and we were soon on our way home.
Also: At Cold Stone Creamery, Irish cream ice cream with almonds is good, but strawberry ice cream with graham crackers, caramel, and whipped cream is better.

How fast did C&C ride? Being a physically fit young man, you could no doubt average well over 15 mph on the flat and level with no wind, implying that riding slowly with them was coasting for you.
