Test a New Route 🚌
It’s fun sometimes to test a new route. You don’t have to be going out into the middle of nowhere; it can be as simple as adding an errand to your usual ride.
That’s what I’m thinking of doing tomorrow. The forecast for the weekend looks like we’ll have a lot of rain on Saturday; and I’d rather not be hauling home a lot of stuff from the salvage store when it’s pouring.
I can hang the panniers on the hybrid, and go for a regular ride; and make a detour to the store on the way home.
Beat the Hurricane 🌀
I also want to beat the hurricane. Rafael has reached hurricane status; and it still looks like we’ll feel some effects from the storm. I can test a new route and get my shopping done well in advance of any tropical weather conditions.
I’m glad that my sister and her husband will beat the hurricane home. They were visiting this past week; and they fly home tomorrow. But today we did a Jean Lafitte Swamp Tour; and it was a lot of fun. If you’re ever down that way, check it out!
Between voting and doing the swamp tour, I didn’t ride until mid-afternoon today. Good thing we aren’t suffering heat indices of 100+! That would have been too much!

ABOUT ME
I began this website primarily as a way to present the story of how I accomplished a century ride on an adult tricycle. Other riders of adult trikes might want to know whether it’s possible. It sure is! You can read all about it in My Story.
I live in New Orleans; and retired in January 2023. More time for cycling!
