Anybody interested in riding Easter Sunday?

'Anybody interested in riding Easter Sunday?' was the title of the Message and I did - my reply -

I want to ride somewhere Sunday - busy Saturday. I cannot keep up with that pace but if it is OK I join you all and I will just try to find someway to shorten the route or do an out and back. I only really want about 35 miles anyway - and do not want to have the group limited to my pace. If would prefer to find some other ride or ride solo to slowing down your ride.

My second post was -

Once you all pick a ride let me know if there is a map or cue sheet so I can look at it - get it in my GPS and work out what I can do.
Thanks

Then -

This sounds great - looks like I can do the 34 miles router which is a subset of the 50 and I should get back more or less at the same time as you 50 milers. I already have both routes in my GPS.
See everyone about 9 AM

And my post ride post -

Woot! - had a great ride - even with the GPS I made three wrong turns - I need to pay more attention to it - I just get so into the ride sometimes - HERE is my GPS route and here is a LINK to some photos I took - was great meeting everyone.

MS Spring Fling - training ride

I really over did it on this ride - I tried not to let everyone know but I was really hurting and it took me a long time to recover - several day to tell the truth. I did have a good time it just hurt.

Here is my comment about doing the ride -

I had a real good ride - I got in dead last but I enjoyed myself.

Here is a link to my ride - click here.

Pugslyyy who has been a real supporter to me and friend wrote this -

LOL, that's the important thing. Somebody has to finish last and to be honest I would be pretty depressed if you were finishing ahead of me on that trike!

And my reply to him -

Thanks - well I did finish - I was told they SAGed in a number from both routes - I do not know how many but that is OK too - it is one of the reasons to do this sort of ride - support - I also enjoy seeing and riding with other cyclists not that I can keep for long. The trike is great and I do not see why I can not ride it about as fast as any other bicycle, I blow the doors off most others on steep down hills so the problem is not the trike but the motor, me. I am working on improving the motor and reducing its weight. Right now I weight over twice of what most other cyclists weight, when I get down to a much lower weight I real hope I will be able to ride with the group most of the time, I would really like to be able to lead some.

I went to buy one of those talking scales several months back but when I got on it to test it the scale said "One at a time, PLEASE!"

This comment was from one of the MSFits team -

Congratulations, Ashby! I ride one of those Wiz Wheelz trikes too and blame my "blazing" (NOT!) speed on the little wheels. I vote that you shoot that smart mouth scale. Keep up the good work!

My first ride with NCBC - the Spring Rally

There seemed to be some displeasure from some of the riders at the Rally but I had no complains - however I did ride the 42 miles route so maybe the problems were on the longer route - I was late getting back and they were packing up when I got in.

Turtle had a great ride - I finished dead last but was not dead, I was tired. I thought the club did a great job setting up the Rally and fell it was well done. The weather turned out to be great even though it was raining when I left Garner. I most likely tried to do too much this weekend at least for me. I rode 35 Saturday and 45 today. I have not had a 70+ miles weekend in over 7 years. It is so great to be able to ride again. I am looking forward to when I can ride faster. I was really hurting the last 5 miles but I did finish. My GPS track is HERE. I have attached a few pictures.

My weight was 370.8 pounds today
