Welcome back! It's gross out today in Portland but there have been some nice days lately too, not Spain, but not Montana either.
3 weeks agoGlad you survived your trip home. Sounds familiar…we were both convinced we had minor colds on our trip home. Because we were scheduled to take hospital patients on a trishaw ride that week we thought just to be absolutely certain we should test for Covid. Both very surprised when I tested positive. Kathleen was 4 days ahead of me with symptoms and tested negative. Very mild cold like symptoms.
3 weeks agoAnd tomorrow we begin our 2 day odyssey to Costa Rica, with horribly long layovers and plane changes. The only good bits are that we only have carryon luggage and no bicycles. Enjoy your time at "home" and get over your colds soon.
3 weeks agoThanks for taking us along on another fabulous journey!
3 weeks agoNot really. We’re only staying here for two weeks before heading south. The number one goal is to get over these colds, but beyond that I want to get out and look for those few last birds I need to reach 300 for the year. Only 11 more!
4 weeks agoHope you guys made it back okay. I'm sure it's going to take a few days to recover from the trip and colds. Do you have a new quest in mind to help you pass the time in Portland?
4 weeks agoYou were right! Glad it held up.....
4 weeks agoYup. I thought she made the picture.
4 weeks agoYup. We were careful. We didn’t want to add to the embarrassing set of yellow shoe prints onthe platform.
4 weeks agoThe “cleaner part” is probably because “you know what I mean” moved here to Santa Cruz..🫣
4 weeks agoWow. Bike box costs have really increased. A few years ago I had to buy a box in Frankfurt. €30, and I thought THAT was a ripoff. This complexity is why I bought a folding recumbent. So convenient to stuff in a suitcase, but I always start and end at the same point since it’s such a short tour. Of course now I have special connections and can obtain the latest in velomobile technology and sell it after the tour. Still have to do a big circle, but it’s simpler for me. Only downside is my colleague has his shop eats of Augsburg in a VERY hilly area. Glad you got everything sorted and are back home.
4 weeks agoLooks like the wheelchair patron needs earplugs..
4 weeks agoMinus yellow tires, too :)
4 weeks agoKeep us all posted..good, bad, or indifferent! May your flight home be without added “hiccups”…👍
