The mayor of a city just west of Toronto rode her bike to work yesterday. A 7km ride.

She's 87.

Here's a story about her getting ready. She was on the news last night showing her arriving at City Hall. She was a little wobbly on the bike at slow speeds but she caught herself twice and she gave an interview or two after the ride.

You should see her drive...

At least I think she's still driving. She was about 5 or 6 years ago. It was scary and inspiring at the same time.

I've never met Tuffy, but I'm guessing that's too much milk for just one kitty.  :yesnod:   I'm afraid that we would loose him if he tried to hit it.  :yesnod: :rotz: :yesnod:  :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol: :icon_smile_big:

Yes. I'm not usually able to do it five days a week but always at least three and usually four. It just depends what we have going on in the evening. I don't know if I'll be doing it this winter.
