What do I do? I take the kid with me!
In a back pack...

In a trailer...

On a mountain tandem...


We've gone as many as 12 miles with the pack and up to 80 in the trailer. We've had the tandem 2 weeks and he's put 75 miles on it so far, up to 23 miles at a time on road and 8 miles off.

In his words:
"Really really much fun!"

I'm a stay at home mom. He's 3. It means giving up some luxuries but we're making do ok. My riding style may have changed to accommodate the kiddo, but at least I'm riding. My husband rides when he can after work and he gets first choice during the weekend, though we generally try to ride together at least once. I wouldn't have it any other way, and I get rides in during the day. I may be the luckier one, the kiddo sings and talks and asks questions and generally has a good time. I'm glad to be a part of it.

It'll prolly be trickier when he does go to school, I plan to try working while he's learning. Well, they're only young once and it's not a sacrifice, it's an honor to be witness to his process of growing.

Guess when he starts going to school it'll be 'you rode how far? No way!'
