I plan on informal speaking to the group at lunch, but tree had fallen off the path, when I turn trike around, starting out broke the broom. Wow thank god it happen at 1 mph...... I had using my 7 yrs old trike, now I switch to two year old trike, Zachary was using it. Thanks Kevin for getting my truck to me, Kevin gave up his ride for me. Hate to part it out, old trike, it save my life, literally. Lots of struggles first two years, looking back, maybe hang it on the garage wall. Anybody loaner trike Zach could use?

Cat shamed me into learning how to change tires. Not easy one handed. I used my old Catrike 700 while Zach rides my new new Catrike 700. I know front tire wore, I try to not change them, new tire left over for Road to Margaritaville Tour, call me lazy! Before ride I changed them. I rode with Donna 24 miles River Loop. Less traffic and we took pictures. Weathers was perfect 72-74 but windy we did reverse the course climb hills first, trail wind all the way back!
