• Bucks County PA bike ride

    August 30, 2024 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 70 °F

    We had great weather. It had just rained overnight, so was overcast and about 67-70°.
    We went about 13.5 miles and it took 1.5 hrs. There were some hills which I am not used to in Corvallis. I had to use my low gears a lot. I only had to get off the bike once at the very top of a hill I couldn’t quite make. So I am really proud of myself.
    My brother’s new bike is quite spiffy and crazy light. He could have blown me away, but of course he didn’t.
    We went through a mix of neighborhoods and park trails. Not much time on busy roads. The park settings were lush forests and streams, or beautiful open meadows. We even had to stop for geese to cross.
    My right knee might feel the brunt of this. Just not used to the torque. But should be okay soon. Yay Friends.
    I attached the map of where we went too.
    I think the last time Steve and I went on a bike ride together was when they lived in their other house about 15+ yrs ago.
