Thanks for visiting my blog. I’m documenting my quest to have 60 adventures - one a week for 60 weeks - leading to my 60th birthday. Enjoy!
All in Things with Motors
I flew a 737 … (sort of).
The simulator at Global Flight Adventures in Canton, MA, makes you feel like you’re really in the cockpit of a 737NG.
Sometimes I forget I’m not 25 anymore. Needing to reach something behind a dresser, I hoisted myself up instead of getting a stool to step on. Ouch! My ribs didn’t like that, and a week later I still wince getting out of bed.
So I bagged a more physically demanding adventure and decided instead to take a ride in a helicopter, and even better, to take a flying lesson. How cool is that?
When I bicycled long distances in my pre-kid days, I loved flying downhill after all the hard work of pedaling up. With cycling, you alternate between work and reward, work and reward.
Riding a Segway is all reward.
