That's what been going on the past few days. Keith had wed, thurs and fri off work and we took advantage of the nice weather and my new bike! As I posted before Keith and I went out Wednesday. Thursday I had to volunteer and work in the afternoon so Keith took the time to do a bike ride for himself. Friday we went to lunch at Fazoli's (yummy, lots of food) and then went for another bike ride. This time being shorter at only 13 miles.
Saturday brought us dropping Kaden off at his Cub Scout event then Keith, Salem and myself headed off for a bike ride. It was on between Salem and I as to who could beat who. Yeah he kicked my butt!! But he's also younger, more energy and he didn't ride 2x in the past 3 days. Of course he hasn't ridden in the past 3 weeks, so that was his downfall. It was fun to go out with them and ride! Salem decided he wanted to do Rosedale...not sure why as he NEVER wants to do that hill. I thin k it had something to do with mommy being on the ride. I am NO way ready to climb that hill, so I stayed at the top while Keith and Salem rode to the bottom and started their climb up. Salem was having a rough time and had to stop. As he's standing there I see him fall over for no reason. Oh yeah, he does this just as a car is driving past (the other way, in no danger) I can hear Keith laughing along with me. And then I do yell down to ask if he's okay or not. He's got a hole in his knee (not too bad) and smashed some other things, but overall not too bad. He gets back on his bike and starts climbing again...good for him!!! So they make it to the top with me and off we all go for home. At home we find ourselves just short of 21 miles, and Salem decides he's SO close to 25 miles he wants to go for the extra 4 miles. I'm pooped and done, so those 2 head off. Honestly after they left I realized I wused out and could have done the extra. Instead I got the stuff ready for strawberry milkshake recovery drinks.
Sunday found us making our way to Sugar Bottom for some mountain bike riding. Keith wanted a work out so he rode his road bike down there and the boys and I headed down in the car with the 2 mtb for the boys and Keith's to switch to. My MTB should arrive sometime this week, YAY! Anyway I hiked back to the shelter and parked myself while the kids and Keith rode the trails. We were out there for a couple hours, got some sun to show for it too. After that headed back to CR and hit Cici's for a ton of food!!! Again we all pigged out!!
It's been some great days we've had. great weather, great fun, great family times. I'm so glad the weather is nice and we can be outside more where we're all happier being!
