My Last Post but NOT Done Pedaling

I started my blog in July 2009 and I'm ending it today.
 I'll still keep the pages on the title bar up to date.

I'm NOT done pushing pedals by any means. I'll continue with social media. I feel Social Media serves a good purpose in letting other recumbent trike riders know that they are not alone. I for one live where I may see one or two trikes a year riding around my City of Thousand Oaks, CA. Without social media I would have felt very isolated over the years.

On the Web version of this blog I'll keep the links on the side bar and the above Page links up to date. 

On the Mobile version of this blog only the updated Pages can be accessed (arrow at the bottom right corner of title picture).

My Instagram - Crazy On Three  

Instagram is my primary source for sharing my trike rides and information. Even though my age group on Instagram, 65 and older, has a small presence (2.6% of users) recumbent riders including velomobile riders seem to make up a decent share of that 2%. It's my observation that younger people on Instagram are happy to share the totality of their lives while older users tend to target specific activities (and food).


My Facebook - Mark T Rackow

The Facebook demographic for 65 and older is 11%.  Here it seems my age group is more comfortable sharing their daily activities. Generally my Facebook posts on my personal page are automatic uploads from Instagram. If I do post on Facebook it's usually to groups like Recumbent Trike Group and ICE Trike Owners.


My Other Instagram - M_Tracy_Rackow  

This is the Instagram account is where I post my art, photography and poetry.
