The landscape has changed from urban lakeshore to vast farmlands. It's like southern Illinois. Corn, soybeans, wheat.
'Laannd spreadin' out so far and wide...'
Larry loves when I sing and today I did the theme song to Green Acres.
Jan from Fremont. We met Jan on the rail trail. A real rider and conversationalist.
We stopped at a cycle shop in Elmore, OH. Ended up taking a test ride on a Terra Trike tandem. Martha captained. Here's a stoker's eye view.
This was so fun for me! I've never captained before....always the stoker.
Tall Mike and short Martha. Mike is the owner of Elmore Cycle in Elmore. A really, really nice and helpful guy.
Martha with her first place trophy. There was a women's only bike race getting ready to start while we were in Elmore. On a whim, Martha decided to enter. She had only Barney for a bike. She had to ride from her regular stoker's seat because she's too short to reach the pedals on the captain's saddle. It was a flat course, so we just set the gear we thought would be best (since she can't reach the shifters from back there). The other racers did seem a little intimidated when they noticed that Martha was riding no hands and no brakes. It came down to a desperate field sprint which Martha and Barney won by a nose. What a women!!
Larry makes me laugh!
