Mom was out riding her trike today and decided she was going to cut off through the desert with me and the dogs, she came to a little hill and gave her trike some gas and it dug out and took off, she turned the throttle the wrong way and it took off through the pucker brush at about 15mph. She did it the old way and tried to go backwards with her pedals, nothing worked so she started pedaling backwards. She turned the throttle again, wrong way, faster she went. My fat little body could not catch her so I started yelling, turn the power off, hit your brakes. She did a fantastic job of steering around everything but did not slow down for awhile. When she finally turned it the right way and heard me say pull the levers on the handle bars and got stopped she just sat there for a long time. The rest of the ride she stayed on the gravel road, no more hill climbing and hills for her.... I am glad she did not wreck and since she didn't that was so funny. I mean she was flying before she got it figured out she was turning it the wrong way. I wish I would have had a video.
Nice sunset tonight, will post some pictures tomorrow. Have a great night, good health to you and your family.
My grandson wrecked his car last night and ended up in the middle of a creek but still on all four wheels, got to love Subaru's. He called his mom while he was sitting on the roof. I am so glad he is ok. He was changing the music station. I can tell you as an EMT that many many wrecks are caused by changing radio stations or cd's then their is by cell phones unless it is texting. Texting while driving is just flat stupid.
