Took my favorite rat up pulling hard hill today in central Tennessee.
 
Went on another ride.

I thought it would be a good idea to take a hiking trail by the river.

Now here's the part where I admit to you, I'm an idiot. And this time I was an especially large one.

By the time I realized this was a terrible idea, I was more than halfway home. I drug her over a dozen sizeable fallen trees, through the mud, and up the steepest hill where I had a moment that I thought I was going to have to call for help.
That trail was not maintained. Holy bejesus. Real roads from now on. I seriously learned my lesson... She came out unscathed...myself on the other hand looked like a sweaty swamp monster. I'm SOOOO glad I put my kickback hub on when I started.

But hey...look at the pretty photos and let's forget about the horror of this ride :D:confused:

Muddy tires but we survived

This is the route I took...I'm glad I was mapping it or I would have freaked out more because I already felt lost :rolleyes:;) notice the 2 mph average I was going. The struggle was real. Haha.

Took the beast out for it's maiden voyage again. It's been months trying to get this thing going. Learned a lot in the process, number one being, if you find a really cheap, incomplete E-bike kit, don't buy it, it i'll wind up costing you the same, or more, as a complete kit, in the long run. I have learned a lot, which is the up side. Went out on the Piermont pier without the battery pack, Tappan Zee bridge with it's replacement behind it. Just to the left of the superstructure is the" left coast lifter" crane barge, it looks much larger in person,which helped make this all possible
