Mom, who’s now 83, gave up her two-wheeler two years ago because her balance was just not steady enough to ride safely anymore. Although she has been doing lots of walking and some paddling over the past two summers she has really missed riding. Bicycling had been a big part of her life for over 70 years! Why it took me this long to dust off and tune up the old tandem hanging in the garage, I can’t explain. But I’m glad I finally did, and so is Mom! It was pretty special cruising Barrie’s Waterfront with her today and hearing her express how good it felt to pedal a bike again! I get it, Mom. I get it. https://www.strava.com/activities/1846775637/shareable_images/map_based?hl=en-US&v=1537143352&utm_source=com.android.mms&utm_medium=referral
