Pete’s wife Suzanne came with us to William Pond Park along the American River Parkway. Suzanne drove my car home, Pete and I rode back. It was about 20 beautiful miles.
The American River from the Guy West Bridge:
Lucy got her bike out, dusted it off, got it serviced, bought a helmet and gloves, and went for her first ride in a very long time.

I loved her husband Jim’s response. He text me later in the afternoon: “Whatever you did today, KEEP IT UP!! Lucy is revitalized!!!” A ringing endorsement for bicycling. Thanks Jim.
We loaded our bikes onto my car and drove to the Crocker Art Gallery.
