Biking with the kids



Of course, if you noticed, this last April, the kids learned to ride on a two wheeler. Then my parents got them new 20" bikes for their birthdays in June.


We have done about a few 6-7 mile rides with a "destination" in the middle (wading pool, etc). We did do a 6 mile when we were camping, but that was on their smaller bikes and they were not impressed.
Yesterday, we went 7.5 miles with just one stop for a drink of water. The kids did great! We had to go on a fair amount of streets before we could get on the parkway, but once on the parkway, it was soooo nice.


Here is our halfway point on the parkway.

Did you get my IM about REI's Kids' Passport program? I posted about it on my blog if you missed it.

I just went there based on your blog and printed out the hikes - we don't seem to have any with the biking ones.
