Ellen's Trek

We drove to Barrington today to Bikes Plus, one of the finest local bike shops around, and Ellen test drove 4 different bikes ...


... radiating joy from her broad smile as each bike she rode far surpassed the performance and feel of the old "freebie" bike she had been using...


... until finally she found the right one for her, a new Trek mountain bike, which she then outfitted with upgraded saddle, bike rack and bag, water bottle, and meter...


... and then we drove home for a quick bite to eat ...



... and then out the garage to put it to the test with its maiden voyage on the Millennium Trail...




She sure has quickly and completely embraced her new active retirement lifestyle!
