Hi, Don & Ruth Ann! Great timing for your trip! Depends where in Colorado you will be visiting. Northern Colorado, the Front Range Foothills, the Western Slope, the High Mountains, and the Southern Mountain ranges all vary slightly, but generally Mid to late Sept. and some areas into early October. There are many websites that will give you maps for the best times to see the leaves change depending on the geographical area, if you can do an internet search.

It might depend on how fast you are riding but does wind noise over those Shoulder Mics ever make it hard to hear or understand each other?
@TrikeTalkin 25 күн бұрын
You are correct! If it is a really windy day, as we have often here in this area of the Rocky Mountains, we may change the position of the shoulder mic. It has not happened often, but if the wind begins to interfere with our radio transmissions, then we reposition as necessary on our trike, or even to our clothing in the neck area somewhere. This works fine for us. Good point!--GG

Great Video. Yeah I have used walkie talkies for a while riding with my trike friends. I have used more expensive and complicated GMRS radios because I like to tinker with them and do other things with them, but GMRS works with the same frequencies that the FRS radios (like the ones you are using) use. So some of our riders can use inexpensive radios and still listen and transmit to the GMRS radios. I will suggest these radios you recommended to some of our other riders who dont want to mess with more complicated ones!

@TrikeTalkin Ай бұрын
YES. On the day we went, we checked the info on the website to verify AND we called. They allowed ebikes and etrikes. Gary and I used as little e-assist as possible, but a little boost now and then came in handy on some of the inclines. No Karen's that day....grateful about that. In fact, had a few cyclists (2 wheeled) that commented to us that they wished they had a bit of e-assist that day! BJ and Jo on Out and About on the Recumbents live in Co. Springs, and they have a couple of vids from those rides. Jo has an e-assist and BJ did not (at that time). Hope you can make it some time. Just check before you go in case some of their ride rules change. Hopefully not. Blessings, GG

@@TrikeTalkin Thanks, I've done the loop road with e-bikes before and I'm certainly glad I had it. I've lived in the area for about a year and I'm not sure I could manage without the assist. So, I was wondering about the no motor vehicles day if that would remain true.
@TrikeTalkin Ай бұрын
I think I even printed up the Motorless Mornings page/paragraph where they had a sentence specifically giving permission for e-assist bikes and had it with me on the ride in case someone approached us about that! They just did not allow cars/trucks etc. during the "Motorless Mornings" hours. People were out there skating, riding skateboards, riding those one wheel devices, etc. Just no cars/truck traffic. One never knows these days, because regulations on trails have become quite varied. Gary & I got on a multi-use trail in Denver we had not ridden before, and were told by a cyclist passing by that we were not allowed on that trail. We returned to the trail head, and there it was, in the tiny print. Also, I think some people misunderstand what "No motorized vehicles allowed" means. Many times, that applies to motorized scooters, etc. and not to bikes/trikes. It can be frustrating and does require a fair amount of research before going, at least here in Colorado. Trike ON! -GG

Thanks for watching and commenting! Yes, since we live in rural Colorado we opted for the larger trikes (Utah Tike SunSeeker CSX Fat Tads) with the suspension, and fat tires so we can "off road" and also ride in snow. That does require a larger vehicle to stow 2 of these out of sight and out of weather. However, our small trailer works great as well, if we are not going to leave the trikes unattended, and if we are parking to ride at a trailhead that has the longer parking spaces. We always have a tarp and tie down straps handy in our unpredictable weather, and that system works great in rain or winter weather here as well... There are other light weight and even folding trike options for those who do not want or need off-roading capabilities, and have smaller vehicles to transport their trikes. Happy Triking!-G.G.

Hi! In my opinion, the inclines on the loop would be really tough on a recumbent without e-assist. We encountered riders on 2 wheeled bikes (no e-assist) struggling to get up a couple of the inclines. On a recumbent trike without e-assist, I suspect the inclines might be a challenge for sure. Gary and I both used low to moderate e-assist with appropriate gearing on the inclines only. Hope this helps! If you decide to go, look for us and say hello! Blessings & Happy Trails-GG

@TrikeTalkin 4 ай бұрын
Hello! Great question with these bigger recumbents. In the summer, we usually transport them in the back of our truck with a camper topper. We purchased a 3 part, hinged, folding metal frame ramp from Harbor Freight. Lifesaver. We roll one trike up first, scoot it over a bit, and then roll the second on up the opposite direction. Secure the ends near the truck gate with a tie-down strap, fold the triple ramp up and it just slides up in between the trikes' wheels and fits perfectly. It is a piece of cake, even for us, and takes about 5 minutes total! We place a kids' styrofoam boogie board at the end between the trikes and the gate so there is no rubbing. Our truck in not 4 wheel drive, so in the winter, we may drive my Jeep and small trailer with the trikes on that positioned the same way. Opposite directions and with a tie down strap to secure. Use the same ramp. Much less work that when we had two wheel ebikes, and loaded them on a traditional bike rack, by the way. If my Jeep Unlimited was a scosh longer, I could fit my trike in there, but it is a tad too short inside for these large fat tad CSXs. Thanks for watching, and keep on triking! Blessings, GG

She told her doc she needed a hysterectomy because she had post-menopausal bleeding and thought it might be ovarian cancer.

SO YOU ARE SO RIGHT that it's vital to Keep up with your body's signs and let your doctor know everything you feel and also, as you said, keep track of everything that's done to you.

My AF was much more of an issue after my heart attack, but I think between the CPAP they prescribed (my sleep apnea, made my arrythmias worse) and my regular trike riding, the AF and other arrythmias have settled down significantly. Keep me posted! Gary found his trike on FB marketplace at about half what mine cost, and it is nearly identical, which was really fun.

Thank you for taking time to watch! I hear you on the balance issues. I previously owned an e-trike with one wheel forward, two in the rear...and I sat up much higher. Hills were a bit of an issue. In my recumbent trike, I am about 10 inches off the ground, and I feel safe and stable. It throttles up a really steep hill easily. I hope when your weather warms, you can get out there again! -GG

I did some research, and it seems that most people agree that it was a way of saying, "If all is well, I will do this or that". Coming from mountainous places like the Appalachians where, in years gone by, a flooded stream would keep people from traveling where they needed to go. I did find out the angle you may be referring to, and that was entirely not where I was coming from. We do have to be careful what we say though, as words are powerful and influential. Thanks so much for watching the video, and for giving us another consideration. Happy triking--GG
