Plus, what a gift to give those kids--they will learn a lot and grow up being active.
Fun book! I've read all of Joe Kurmaskie's books, his stories are so funny, and some of them very moving. He lives in Portland, so we've seen him speak up in the Seattle area a few times and are going again next week to hear about his latest adventures on a bike. His kids are older now, so wonder what they are up to. He is a very committed bicycle advocate in that area, can't wait to see him.
Interesting link shootingstar, amazing family!
