Title: Warning, Mistake...
Post by: Alfetta on May 31, 2022, 10:15:00 AM: I left the Guzzi in the garage this weekend... Wife and I went with a couple of friends to spend 3 days riding on the Katy Trail.
Today I can hardly walk.

I'm with Huzo. I wouldn't have considered the trip unless a motor/engine was involved. :bow:

I feel your pain. I don't know if you are interested...but an e-bike is a consideration. I certainly ride my Guzzi, but I have to admit, our Rad Bikes are just the thing when we want to ride into town, run errands, get some fresh air and a bit of exercise. When we get a little tired, just twist the wrist and off we go!
Be well, Stay well,

DougG

I thought I'd start riding a push bike for fitness purposes recently but the uncaring cage drivers arond here soon dissuaded me.
At least on a motorcycle you can get away from them

Post by: Dan Beaman on June 06, 2022, 10:13:41 PM: I ride 4-6,000 miles on my bicycle yearly and the Katy Trail is a great path. Iowa has several good ones too. The reason so many struggle after a bicycle ride is that they try to be "weekend warriors" with little previous riding. We see the world so well from our motorcycle seats, but you experience it on a bicycle.

Different perspectives I think. Love them both!
