Silly wabbits
If I have one overwhelming “issue” with Sam and Gabe these days, it’s the constant silliness. I can appreciate and enjoy it much of the time, but when we’re at the grocery store, or the library, or in a doctor’s … Continue reading

Possible bike(s)
Local bike store recommended the Trek 7.2FX WSD, or possibly the 7.3. Supposedly, they’re ideal for bike paths and roads, both of which I do, and they’re a good option for my current level of riding (athletically inclined ( ) … Continue reading
