Hello, folks. I've had my Q45 for about 120 days now. In February, I went on a cruise, got some sort of horrible violent hacking dry nearly uncontrollable cough, to the point where I got quarantinned in the ship's medical center the last day and night of the cruise. They were able to test for COVID and pneumonia on the ship (no and no), and they thought it might be whooping cough (you ever hear a crane whoop? That's exactly what the cough sounded like), which they could not test for on the ship but my doctor back home said nope, not that either. It slowly, slowly, slowly, FINALLY went away, and now I'm back on the bike.
I'm confident enough now to ride in moderate traffic, make U-turns narrower than a single lane, and pretty much maintain straight and level at any speed faster than a very slow walk, that's turning the cranks or not. Now that warmer weather has come to Oklahoma, I've been taking it out with my fiddle pretty much every day 10-12 miles, stopping for a little practice, then back home.
The first big event on my roster is the Oklahoma Freewheel, that's the first week of June, a five-day loop east of Tulsa. I'll ride to Tulsa a couple of days before (from Oklahoma City, that's 120ish miles), ride the Freewheel, then back to OKC. Mmm-hmm.
