2022 mileage: 3832.9
This morning I went over to the subdivision where my daughter Christy lives in Dexter, in order to ride with her and my grandchildren (Izzy, 12, and Danny, 9). We had fun riding laps on a loop where the roads were finished, but the houses are still being constructed, so there was no traffic to have to deal with.
We were hampered slightly by the fact that the kids' bikes were at their dad's house. However, Izzy rode Christy's bike, while Christy jogged and walked; and Danny rode an old, smaller bike of his (in which, unfortunately, the tires were low in air, so he didn't last too long before heading back home).
Today's ride was exceptionally lightweight in both speed and distance (5.2 miles in 58 minutes). Christy apologized more than once for holding me back. But as I told her (quite truly), the important thing for me was just that we could have the time together.
