second title

Thanks to the introduction of E-Mountain Bikes, (pedal- assisted), this has now become an activity us old timers can partake. These bikes take the "grunt" out of climbing the hills and going the distance, making it a relaxing, enjoyable ride.

Hank's new Cube E-Mountain Bike

Unfortunately, someone really like my "old" (almost new) Haibike and stole it right from my rear carrier. BCAA came through without problems... now upgraded to the Cube bike pictured below.

August 15, 2018 - Harward Lake Trail - M & H

Merrill and I decided to tackle the Harward Lake trail again... this time on our e-bikes. I have done this trail with our regular bikes, but it proved very tough due to the amount of hills. With our E-Bike, we hoped to flatten the hills a bit... well the hills still were very steep for us old timers. But was very nice and worth doing it again (only part).
