    Yippee!

    Yes, we got ours. In fact, we took them out to CX practice last night (we're a little crazy) and riding in the sand was SO MUCH EASIER! The corners were a bit sketchy (riding it feels like a car that is out of alignment until you get used to it), but it could actually get moving pretty well (22+ mph) in a straight line. Oh - and you can ride over pretty much ANYTHING with it - one of our friends had his light die last night, so I loaned him mine. The moon was bright, so I was riding in a small area when BOOM! - I didn't see the cement parking curb. The bike rode right over it without issue (the bruising on my torso will be from hitting the bars/shifters ).

    We're bringing ours up to Bethel the week of Thanksgiving - we should try to get together!

    Here are some pics of ours:

    Too funny! That's one of my favorite sayings. Alas, I can't use it in the classroom, so I have resorted to glass houses and stones.

    Common Core wants students identifying and explaining proverbs, adages and idioms. All my colleagues want to know - what's the difference between a proverb and an adage?

    Don't forget those picture ridebikeme!

    I think a proverb is one we agree with and an adage is one we don't.


    Yep, pictures needed for sure! SheFly, beauty!
