So,  It's just me and the Valk riding now...and that's just not fun.

Mama has RA and can't ride comfortably anymore.  I have to help her on and off and she can't stand it for more than about a 1/2 hour.

Rides to the mountains were our thing.  
Riding around this area is downright dangerous and I just ain't into it.

Hopefully someone will enjoy the "Mighty, Mighty" as much as we did. Cry
This bike is such a hoss!  Cool  (see the classifieds).

Looking for a Pop-Up trailer now....at least we'll be together then.

Spidy, sorry to hear your DW can't ride any more.

I faced the same problem 10 years ago with my DW.  She has back issues and didn't enjoy the rides anymore.  Have continued to Ride, though don't go as far as we die.   Just short rides around the local country with some 200 to 300 miles loops several times during the riding seasons.  No over nighters.

I'm facing the same with my wife. RA makes it all but impossible for her to get on and off the bike. Not sure what I'm going to do, because it's just no fun riding alone all of the time, and I end up feeling really guilty leaving her at home.
