bike ride

Today I took the kids for a ride in the bike trailer. They've been in it together before but only for walks. Today we attached it to my bike and away we went! This particular Burley model is for two children, up to 100 pounds total. I was concerned at first that they might be uncomfortable together, but they actually seem to be okay. I can't imagine pulling the two of them when they total 100 pounds; we'll have to find Thomas something else then. Today we only rode for 20 minutes due to sun and hills, but we still enjoyed feeling the wind in our faces and going for a ride.

Note to self: Inflate all tires on both trailer and bike before next ride. This will make the outing much easier and more enjoyable. Also, find a FLAT area to ride when pulling the kids. Leaving directly from the house and tackling the hills will only cause super sore and tired muscles. It isn't necessary.
