Re: Rights vs. Responsibility

WOW, 12 minutes!  It takes me 30 minutes without hills.
And that's 4.6 miles to the first stop in town.
Hell, I drive the fuel buggy to town in 10 minutes.

Decided I wanted my favorite recumbent back so I can get comfortable.
I'm not ready to get another trike.  But one of those fancy pine box
Derby's on wheels I can crank along would be real nice.  Zipping into
town and around the trails and roads to other towns and cities.
And NO fuel costs other then a PB&J.  Sounds mighty good.
