Okay, so it wasn't anything really to speak of, but we finailly pulled our bikes down and got them ready. We also got the new hitch put on my Subaru and wanted to go someplace, but didn't yet, but it's ready....We went out to the end of our road and a little further for the 1st time and back, about a total of about 3 miles...it's a start. Basically went down to get our newspaper, it gets delivered at the end of our road. We also have a few hills to climb. Next time, maybe tomorrow I want to go over by Winnepesaukee on a old rail bed, there's actually two trials over that way. Hopefully tomorrow.....

Yes, it does. Got another ride in today. Was in Kennebunk, ME. Hubby had to work so I went with him, while he made some money, I played. I have the day off, with pay. If he doesn't work, he doesn't get paid. Sorry.....

I rode down around the beaches, Walker's Point, then back down through town. Twice...well almost on my second ride when I near Walker's Point, my brakes started acting up, back ones. Saw the parade there too, they have a pretty small one. They felt like they were grabbing....not sure what happened, then tonight when I went to put it away, the front ones felt like it too. If hubby can't figure it out, I may have to put it in a shop....

Sounds like a nice ride. I used to work at the Toms of Maine..on the assembly line when I lived in old Orchard Beach..

You're doing better than I am! Still haven't been on my bike yet this season. Enjoy it! I can't wait til my knee feels better so I can get out there, too!
