and rising costs
I look at it this way. The price of diesel has gone up $1.25
since last year. A friend and I went to a ride up by Redding last weekend. The total round
trip distance was 440 miles and we used about 30 gallons of fuel.
That means we spent about $40 more this year than last or about $20 each.
That's the price of a large combination pizza and less than dinner and drinks
at a restaurant. I will continue to go to rides and cut back
on dinning out.
