Electric Crash

Sure enough adding a battery to Winky was a mistake.  The woman is incapable of going slow.  The two old coots took the electric bikes to Harmon Lake to enjoy the wonderful bike  paths.  Kadizzle stopped on a metal bridge to let Winky meet up with him.  As Winky came barrelling toward the Bridge Kadizzle  told her " Go ahead if you want".  Apparently Winky decided she would rid in the lead.  Kadizzle was looking forward as Winky came from behind.  Then there was a crashing explosion and Kadizzle looked down to see Winky splayed on the deck of the bridge.  Her handlebar caught on Kadizzles.  Now an ordinary person would slow down if the had to go through a very narrow spot, but not Winky she had to go like a rocket with disastrous results.  Her helmet saved the bridge and her head from damage.  With some bleeding little scrapes she got up and blamed Kadizzle for the whole thing.  Kadizzle as an old municipal judge tried to explain to her that if you hit someone who is parked it is your fault. Fortunately rocket woman was not hurt and the equipment survived.  Bikes do have brakes, the trick is to use them.  In the end we went 18 miles.  Winky said she did not get enough exercise on the ebike.  Kadizzle has tried to get it through her head she can turn down the assist and she will need more effort.  The concept may never sink in to the hyperactive part of the marriage.   Now there are some physics involved.  Peanut weighs about half what Kadizzle does. This means her electric motor does not have nearly the work to do that the motor on the Kadizzlator does.
