Oh yeah, our bike riding days are back
We broke out the bikes for the first time yesterday. We have a bike trip planned with some friends on the Androscoggin River Bike Trail this weekend and needed to do a bike check to make sure everything was in working order.
OK, so that's our excuse for dropping everything we should have been doing yesterday afternoon to ride.
The yard might not be clear of snow yet, but the roads are.
It became obvious to us yesterday that it will take a while to get our "bike legs" back when we had to take an earlier than usual water break during our trip.
Since the soft serve ice cream machine hasn't been turned on for the season at our local convenience store, the girls chose another frozen treat from the freezer. Some sort of frozen chocolate pie slice. It was finger-licking good.
We are psyched another bike riding season has started. We biked four miles round trip yesterday and were all tired but excited to get back to enjoying the outdoors on two wheels.
We are planning to explore more bike trails this year so if you have a favorite place to ride (that has generous shoulders on the road or is a bike path), tell us about it.
