Good looking bike Tom. How'd she perform?

Just fine. Good workout with adequate assist when you need it. I picked up 3 of these given the price before they sold out. If anyone is interested in a test ride or purchasing one just PM me.

Teneriff was a winter wonderland yesterday - though I had to hike through some rain to get there.... well packed trail, no need for spikes and some one handy with a saw cut most of the blow downs. He/she was fast because it was done while I was above. Thank you muchly for that! This was the long way up, quite a few hikers too!

When I grow up I wanna play.

Kamiak Butte March 12, 2020 Not feeling like a long drive, I hit the local hill for a 4-mile loop. Up Pine Ridge and down West End Primitive. Quiet on the trail save for some owls in the lower forest. A little ice but no need for microspikes.

No Danger. The smaller sign says "you won't get back to the parking area this way." Maybe a warning to wayward hikers.

Went to McDonald Mountain just east of Ravensdale There's no reason to drive here: there are two or three nice panoramas, but they are few and far between. As a student, I had done a report on Green River historic towns, and visited one private site, getting a few photos of the stacks and ruins. The owner was nice enough to let us visit again. After that, onwards to the confusing maze of logging roads on McDonald, which involve a turn off of the main road that is easy to jog past in the dark. Oops. .

Spent a beautiful day roadwalking up Mt. Sultan. Saw one hiker and ten horseback riders keeping a good social distance between horses.

Took the orange bike out yesterday for a ride down the hill. Forgot to charge the battery overnight so it would be the blue bike to look pretty today...
