Maiden of the Chariot


It was the first warm & sunny Sunday in a long time so we took full advantage of it by taking the Chariot out on its maiden voyage yesterday on the local bike path. E packed a small picnic lunch & I put our 2 bikes on the roof & Miki's Chariot in the back. We got a 1pm start and headed north, bound for some groceries & a tea at Starbucks. It took us 30 minutes to get to the local bookstore where we sat out front to soak up some warmth. The Chariot was truly enjoyable to pull along - except for the hills! Let me just say that yes, gravity does work just fine. After a couple of teas we cruised over to the grocery store for a few items that we had room for. We got back to the car at 5pm - Miki slept the whole way -just as the sun was slipping behind the mountains...
