15 cycle train..better example...2 sunsets post...

Moments after getting home from 7 days in Korea, we loaded up rides for the Cool Davis green festival..we towed them 2 miles home at dusk, as the poor lighting suggests. The 7 foot dia. German wheel travelling WIDE on it's non-top-heavy side. It trailered marvelously, though it was heavy and thus slooow on the few uphills..totaling well over 500 pounds, And I had the kiddies on my back and behind me to boot... kinda tricky on the street and on the bikepath...
As of that hour, I had seen two sunsets, two sunrises, both sides of the Pacific, and was @35 hours into a 41 hour Trans-Pacific Sunday...Whew!!
Our Korean welcome was even more wild..go figure...ya gotta see it to believe it.so fun..
