Karen Etchells writes about experiences she and her husband, David, share with their enthusiasm for tandem cycling. As active 40-somethings, aspects of parenting and family, eating well, and maintaining good health are common topics.
This will be an exiting weekend! David's USA Cycling license arrived in the mail yesterday. Tomorrow, David will test the waters as he re-enters the world of bicycle racing as more than just an observer!
David raced as a teenager, but with becoming a grown-up and having stresses and responsibilities, his own desires were put on hold. Now that David's (with me!) in a supportive relationship, he's on the right path with his career, and his son is off to college -- it's time to do those things he didn't have the freedom to do previously.
I'll be ringing a cowbell on the sidelines to cheer him on!!
The Plainville Spring Series is held on the roadways of The Farmington Valley
Corporate Park in Plainville, CT. The course consists of a flat,
0.5 mile circuit on smooth pavement with two, wide 90 degree turns.
I discovered this video clip online of a previous year's race.
