Crater Lake, Oregon.

The question was "Where are Patricia and Stacey biking this year?"

Less than 200 days to get in shape :-)

Have you been able to get out at all in Ireland? Or is the traffic too much of an issue?

And by get out, of course, I meant biking. I can see from your LJ that you actually do leave the house....

*laugh* I knew what you meant :)

The problem is twofold. One problem is the traffic, which is utterly terrifying. The other problem is that the bike I brought with me is a recumbent, which is fantastic for my back but not as maneuverable in general as a standard bike, and specifically a real pain in the ass on hills. The town in which we are living is, unfortunately, rather like a miniature San Francisco. So no, I haven't gotten out at all. :P

I did bike once in Ireland, when I was 19. If I'd remembered what the roads were like, I wouldn't have brought a bike at all. But now I feel sort of stuck with the recumbent, and donno quite what to do about it all.

I went biking in Kerry back in 1996--as I recall I spent much of the week looking over the wrong shoulder when I heard traffic behind me, which was disconcerting to say the least.

I ride a hybrid which isn't great for my back, but I'd be too nervous in a recumbent unless I was only sticking to bike paths.
