Can you imagine what those riders in The Tour go through? Enjoy your rest day

Enjoy your day off! Should be cooler for a day or two. The heat is the worst!

That always gives you a good feeling!

My favorite is the espresso milkshake in Winthrop. Good job!

Pretty cool Al. Looking good!

Well Paul, I do have issue and it’s not my butt, my legs, my lungs, or my wrists. It’s this damn degenerative upper back of mine. At this point, drugs is probably the only answer. Thanks, Al

I’m using that app Mike but, it’s not very user friendly for this tired ole mind BUT, I am getting better at it. Thanks. Al

Amazing accomplishment. You’re on your way, my friend. Any new aches and pains let me know.

Al, there is a free app that you can get for your phone called RideWithGPS. This will give a track of your ride each day and also an altitude profile. You can also use it for ride planning but you may need the paid version for that.

Nice to see you sporting the colors. What level of assist were you using?

Yes Mike, one internal + one on seat tube. I thought I was in shape but, I guess not. …hopefully you’re right about getting fitter.🤗

Batteries plural _ do you have an internal battery in the downtube as well as the one on the seat tube?
As you get fitter you should be able to extend your range.
Mike- also 80yo and a recent convert to e-assist.

So proud! I watched as Al pedaled five hours almost nonstop up a steep grade with fully-loaded panniers. The batteries are recharging now (his and the ebike’s) and tomorrow is a new day, a new pass.

Al, you might actually be on your trip now! Anyhow, my friend, best of luck and may a kind Mother Nature always throw wind to your back! That being said, it doesn’t mean you can turn around to take advantage of that wind, and as the Rawhide show always said— forward ho (sp) my friend. Tom

What an awesome bike and awesome endeavor my friend! Happy Trails XOXOX
