    Hi Mario, Thank you for the message. It's good to hear your reflection. While this news is scary, it is also an opportunity to remember to be aware of my surroundings and try to be as safe as I can. I will make every effort to avoid being another #metoo.

    Warning to Women Walking Solo

    This is a lot to read and let in. I’m cycling Lisbon to SdeC solo in Sept/Oct. I’m female. I recently took a Women’s Self Defense class and it was incredibly helpful. While I know it won’t keep harm totally away from me, I also know that it taught me a lot and I feel better prepared.

I will be able to handle most trails I think. When I keep low air pressure, my tires seem to handle off road fairly well. However...
