Is it some kind of invitation-only sub-forum...? How would it be different than public dialogue in the "Obsessions & Interests" sub-forum?

It is both a duty and a devotion to two women that I love (my wife and youngest daughter). I'm just glad that I was able to retire early so as to be available for them.

The actual duties, themselves, aren't too hard to swallow from that perspective.

Adult trikeswere designed for disabled people.

I am not physically disabled, but I like mine for ice, snow & cargo. I can walk to somebody's front door and not worry about it falling over with a load of papers. And I have slid on ice, but it hasn't gone down. (It's safer than walking on ice!)

im happy that you are not physically disabled. I bet your trike is fun to ride in the ice and snow. it would be pretty hard for a trike to go down unless it tipped over on its side. walking on ice is fun but dangerous and not just because you can slip but also because the ice can break and you can fall through.

I was referring more to icy sidewalks/"black ice." Being in Washington, I'm sure that you are familiar with "black ice." (My oldest was born in Olympia.)

i live on a long and steep hill so when we get bad winters like 6 inches or more of snow its fun to watch people get stuck in the snow and its fun to ride bicycles in the snow.
 
I'm in northern Wisconsin, now. I was born in southern California and biked everywhere, there. I would have joined a high school racing team, if we had one. I had to settle for cross-country running, instead.

I've adapted to the weather. The cost-of-living is more manageable here.

Oxnard. I used to bicycle all over Ventura Co. on a touring bike (lighter than mountain bike/heavier than racing bike). I don't remember the make/model. In town, I once got a speeding warning for going 40mph in a 25mph? zone. (No speedometer.)

I was a middling finisher, time-wise, but it did develop my stamina.
