You have probably noticed that since the Leadville 100, my biking blogs have been non-existent. Lots of work, laziness and just not making the time has added up to almost 2 months off the bike.
So . . . once again I had some time to take off at work, but this time I skipped the weed pulling and instead got on a bike. Which trail? Nope, I hit the streets of downtown Albuquerque to try and make some money. Roadrunner PediCab is a new company and I figured I could give it a try. If nothing else, I might stay in better shape through the winter months.
Damn! Pedaling these bikes is a workout. Oh wait, now add 1 or 2 people on it and the legs get a serious burn. At times, I bet I am dragging around 350 lbs. Little hills seem like a 18% climb and it makes one appreciate all the lightweight technology on my bike.
How did it go. Well I got the workout! Not much money to be made yet, but the bikes are getting a lot of positive comments. Picked up a few riders off the RailRunner and took a few people to and from lunch. Probably need to ride the bike at night during the weekend drink fests.
Not all was lost, this treasure was laying on the street!
That's it for now . . . .
More hiking this week at work and then we are off to Vegas from my brother's wedding.
GO ROCKIES!!!!!!!!!
