Thrill of a Gentle Ride
Hillsdale to Brewster, NY: 41 of 62 miles
Day 7: Empire State Trail Ride
Sunday, August 8, 2021
A Rail Trail is wonderful!
Harlem Valley Rail Trail—
Early in today's ride.
Twenty-four miles of flat, calm riding.
THE BEST!
Remaining miles into lunch stop
Had moderate hills.
The kind that seem worth
Pedaling up, for coasting down.
Gentle morning;
Made space for noticing
Hillsides, flowers, charming old buildings.
One place, our road passed
Destination-type Inn.
Beyond stone wall, bride & groom
Being photographed.
Won't they be surprised to see
One photo with Screaming Yellow shirt in backdrop,
One with Blaze Orange!
Those color flashes?
Nancy and I riding by.
I came in with van after lunch.
Good decision.
Hugs,
Lin
Limerick:
Days that can start with a gentle ride,
Seem to promote the day's gentle side.
Do you think that's true?
Is that true for you?
Setting you up to take more-in-stride!
