I had a flat while at speed in the interstate.
I wouldn't even want to do that on my trike.

The people I was riding with knew I was no longer with them.
We only had to wait in the desert shade about an hour for my

(72,300 posts)5. I miss the good old days too.
Way back when I was 18 I rode alone.
My chain broke a link so I repaired the bike with the wire from my earring.
Yep. Things were simpler then.
