Retirement Fantasies

I have this fantasy that in retirement I will travel around the U.S. and pedal rail trails. My mission could be two-fold: enjoy magnificent scenery and provide oil and assistance to others.

My husband envisions manning a trailside stand-up pump. He could be happy, socializing and tending to folks who require a tire top-off.

Trailside air and oil. A simple, easy way to give back to the cycling community.

  1. Similar dreams here. I often talk about living or having a small business along a rail-to-trail and providing simple bike fixes, shuttle service and beer. Yet I don't want to be tied to one place.

    1. I here you. Freedom is what retirement's all about!

  2. I think this would work really well with coffee for sale too, as well as basic adjustments to the bike. A great idea, would be good on our Fernleigh Track. Vicki

    1. I love good coffee, like most bike riders, but our idea was to set up on whim for an hour or two, so I don't suppose serving coffee would work well. Of, course, I would bring a thermos for ourselves...
