I guess it's like uncharted territory, getting to bike ride in a new place.
Uh, hey Pierce, you need to slow down!
Pierce, slow down!
Pierce, there are too many people to ride that fast, slow down!
If you don't SLOW DOWN the bike is going in to time out for 30 minutes.
Guess what? Pierce slowed down. But I think his speedy zipping about rubbed off on his little brothers....
Readers, do you remember the joy and freedom of riding your bike as a kid? I sure do!
We lived on our bikes as kids -- and no helmets of course. :)
ReplyDeleteHow adorable! I love the determination on their faces!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice place to practice safely with pals.
ReplyDeleteI remember getting the wind knocked out of me as we slipped on the dewy grass going down a slight hill. I think my brother still has a circular scar from the handlebar on his belly.
Oh Lisa I sure do. Great shots. B
ReplyDeleteI wish I had some place here to ride.. because I so would. AS it is I have to drive my bike to town to have a place to ride and if I am gonna do that I will just walk instead.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a wonderful event. I loved getting to see your boys fly.
ReplyDeleteI LOVED riding my bike all over town when I was growing up in Iowa. The town was so flat.. no hills. It's why I don't have a bike today because I could never make it up the hills. No helmets then and no knee pads and no one died. I can tell your boys were loving the ride! xox
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun day.... I still ride my bike and feel joy and freedom everytime I do.
ReplyDeleteAh yes, brings back memories! Great pics, Lisa
ReplyDeleteOh, yes I do. They look so cute, Lisa! :)

ReplyDeleteZoom, zoom. And no one got hurt.
ReplyDeleteOh, I can see the look of a daredevil on each of their faces! :-)
ReplyDeleteI loved riding my bike. My brother and I raced each other and set up obstacle courses to ride through. Other times I just rode around, enjoying the wind and the movement. Sometimes I pretended my bike was really a horse.
Looks like fun! Pierce sure was determined to go fast!
ReplyDeleteWe were on our bikes from dawn to dusk! No one in our group had an obesity problem either. Your boys are precious on their bikes.
ReplyDeleteI remember. It was one of my favorite things to do. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat fun!!!! This is such a great idea for schools to do, too bad they don't do it around here! Gosh, you may have a mini Evel Kenevel on your hands!
ReplyDeleteGosh, Baby Girl, that's how we got around back in the day!...:)JP
