Getting Ready
Up Getting Ready Riding Balancing Bikes

Up

Before we can ride, we have to get there.  And, after we finally do get there, it can seem to take forever before we finally hit the trails.  The preparations probably just seem extra long because it's the first ride of the trip.  We're all anxious to hit the trails to introduce Ian & Rubi to what we already know is a wonderful ride and great place to bike.

Besides just getting stuff unpacked and ready to go, the issue of what clothes to wear dogged us the whole trip.  Check out the pictures to see why!

I'm on the left, Ben is center, and the smiley one is my wife, Lisa.

Ian.jpg (283222 bytes) Is Ian ready or what?

Is it a toy Subaru in the background or is Ian a giant?

Ok, probably neither... Rubi had the wide angle lens cranked. 

I think the perspective on this shot is fun!
