Another TT Orlando Update

Here is a quick update on what's happening since the last post. On Wednesday, we headed to the West Orange Trail for a ride into Winter Garden with the start at Killarney Station. Audrey had some work done on her Catrike at the Winter Garden Wheel Works - where she bought the trike. She had the head rest foam replaced and a chain guard installed. Check out the pictures of the owner of the shop, his associates and the Black Cat being worked on.

While Audrey was riding from Killarney Station to WG, I headed out a little more quickly to find the Catrike Factory in Winter Garden. It's an easy place to find but not the easiest to reach by bike. The road leading to the industrial park where the factory is located is heavily traveled and not bike friendly. However once I found the place, I was impressed. I met the owner of the business (Mark) and his main mechanic (Guillermo), and they spend about 15 minutes chatting about the business. Catrike is sponsoring a 2 day rally for recumbent riders on February 28 and March 1. Audrey and I plan to attend. There is no charge for the event -- you gotta like that.

Thursday was a day of fun. Myron & Dorcas Whitley, Rob & Bonnie Wall, Pat & John Lively and Audrey and I headed to RV Liquidators in Orlando to check out the motor homes for sale. On the way we stopped in Winter Garden for pizza at Winter Garden Pizza. No motor homes were purchased but there were many that were mighty attractive.

Yesterday, Friday, we took our bikes and head to a group ride of recumbent riders on the Withlacoochee Trail near Brooksville. There were more that 25 bent riders who participated. Details will be posted later.

More to come another day.
