cheerfulThankfully, there was a dryish spell while the dinner was cooking, so I took the kickbike for a short spin along the old railway (now a cycle and walking trail).
The verdict is that it's definitely going to be fun. My scootering skills returned more quickly than I might have expected, considering that I can't have been on a scooter since I was 11 or so. I did about a mile and a half, and the cardiac workout was much better than either walking or cycling. I couldn't have walked the distance anything like as fast and I wouldn't have got out of breath cycling such a short distance. I need to do at least 4 or 5 miles on the bike to feel much benefit.
So, that means that I've not only reached Lothlorien, but I'm now 1½ miles on the road to Rauros Falls.
