Solo Twisties




Rain, rain, go away.  Today it did.  With that, I headed to the hills to do some "real" riding.  Well, that's what it's called here but I kept the speed real low to test the limits of my abilities without ending up at the bottom of some narrow valley.  So low was my speed that a friendly biker passed me, turned around, passed me on the other side offering a thumbs up, turned around again and caught up to me.  We pulled over.  He wanted to be sure I was OK because I wasn't approaching the speed of light like most everyone else on these roads.  I explained that this was my very first time, I valued my life, we talked shop for a bit, and then exchanged some contact information.  Nice guy.  Anyway, it was fun.
