Early March Hares? 
I thought I was seeing early March Hares on my moon-viewing ride this morning. Never mind that the calendar says it’s still February.
The first rabbit I spotted was quite close to the place where the bicycle access ramp reaches the top of the levee. And it pulled a “mad” one. The rabbit was on my right; but instead of running down the side of the levee away from me, it darted across the path — right in front of me! Apparently its hole was in that direction. Good thing I wasn’t going fast. Bunny #2 was about a mile farther on; and I’m glad to say it didn’t rush out in front of me.
My legs feel a bit tired from yesterday’s ride; so when I went to the salvage store a little later this morning, I didn’t hurry. If you’ve done a long (well, longISH) ride the day before, it’s OK to ride slow and easy today. We don’t all have to be as fast as early March hares.
And Tomorrow? 
And tomorrow, shall I aim for 25 miles? I’m starting to do one or two rides of 19 miles or so during the week; is that trying to build up too fast? Maybe I’m subconsciously trying to make up for lost time; first CMC afthroplasty; and then lapiplasty, put a very major dent in my mileage last year! And maybe I’ll see some more early March hares tomorrow?

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!
