He went on trail rides with my wife and her older sister. They limited the mileage to about dozen miles. Tazz was gone by the time I motorized their bikes.

Here's the web site for the ride. Every year it switches directions. This year we start near KC and ride east. It's the easier way as it's somewhat downhill and usually has a tail wind. https://mostateparks.com/2019ktride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
