Two Old People and a bunch of electrons

 Kadizzle sits on Cliff's porch and the hummingbirds buzz at twice the rotor speed of a helicopter. They are so maneuverable it is hard to imagine. Although there is plenty of sugar water they fight all day over the water, much like humans. Winky has the energy of a hummingbird. Under her command we loaded the magic bikes with batteries and headed toward the Indian Spring trail. Off through the woods we went buzzing. High in the White Mountains it was a perfect day. Rain must have poured down there recently.  Parts of the trail were just streams running down the trail. Winky decided to take a side trail. We had to cross higher than normal streams on the bikes.  Kadizzle decided the best way to do it was just power down and fly across. It worked. A bit bashful Winky walked her bike across and paid the price of wet feet. Kadizzle has close to 4,000 miles on his bike. That is a lot of peddling, and battery charging. A nice part of the ride was along an old railroad grade used for logging.
