    I seem to keep forgetting to actually take my camera on the trail, so here is another shot of our fearless globe-trotting duo checking out a friends mountain bike when we returned from our ride this past weekend.

    As you can see, they are both ready for action! Either that, or they are resting and thanking their lucky stars they survived my crash on the trail! Not to worry fearless duo, you were quite safe in my hydration pack - certainly safer than I was

    Maidei requested I add a map of the wonderful trail system at Brown County State Park before sending her to her next hostess, and I will do that. We have more activities planned for the Labor Day weekend, rain permitting, but after that it is probably time for her to travel to her next stop.

    Who wants her next? I do want to take her road riding with me and hopefully I can remember my camera this time - and to actually stop to provide her a photo op!

    Maybe the 3 yr. old could have considered a tricycle ride with Maidei.

    My concern was more about where they would wind up if we lost track of her - that little one moves FAST BTW, that 3 year old has already had her first mountain bike ride - on her Strider - at age 2

    Sorry, I just saw this post. I won't have time to mail her until next week if that is ok with you - life is....really busy right now. PM me your postal address and I will send her on her way after she gets a chance to go mountain biking with me one more time

    Catrin,
    Do you still have Maidei? If no one else has spoken for her, could I get her again? I regret that I didn't take her to St. Louis last year and I'm planning to be there for a few days in a couple of weeks. I know she would love to see the Arch. And if no one objects to me keeping her for 6 weeks, I could take her to Ironman Florida as well.

    She is going to Illinois later this week to spend some time with ASammy1. Perhaps you could coordinate with her so you can take her to the Ironman? Also, I didn't know you are doing an Ironman, that is seriously cool!

    I'm not doing Ironman, DH is, but I am running the Chicago marathon October 7. I completely forgot about that. I wonder if Maidei would like to run the Chicago marathon? I'll try to coordinate with ASammy1. What part of Illinois would that be? Do you know?
