First front door commute

So last night Cindy and I did a rare mid-week EUC riding session.  We also had another first for Cindy.  It was the first time she rode from the house to a destination meaning it was her first time riding on both our road and the sidewalk along Immokalee Road as well.  She felt a little wobbly on the way there but it smoothed out.  She also somehow got stung by a bee while on the wheel, something I never experienced yet.

We rode through the Waterways development and onto the school grounds where we tooled around for awhile.  The stiff and gusting winds gave Cindy some problems but she fought through them.  I did some backwards riding as well just to make sure I don’t let the skill get too rusty.

By the time we made it back home we had covered around 6.5 miles.  Cindy did really well handling the various terrain and situations.  I told her it would be funny if someday she rode her wheel to the newly opened nearby Publix to go shopping.  She probably isn’t quite ready for something like that but I have no doubt that she is further ahead in her riding skills than I was at the same amount of hours ridden.

Cindy worked hard on beautifying the newly installed mailbox yesterday.  The finished work looks very nice. Hopefully inconsiderate, clueless, or distracted motorists can avoid impacting the structure for at least a little while.
