I love biking, I love my family....so what could be better than a family bike ride? Last Sunday the Bike Coalition of Philly sponsored a 'car-free' family fun ride throughout center city/fairmont park and beyond. I signed us up, prayed for good weather, pumped up the tires, dusted off the bike trailer, packed snacks, set the alarms early...
About 3 miles into the ride Abria decided she had had enough of this 'family fun ride'. It was naptime, she was stuck in this trailer thing, and the only appropriate response was to cry....loudly. Ironically, other riders passed us saying 'how cute, what a fun way to travel!' Clearly Abria did not agree. Luckily Alette was extremely tolerant and as long as she had her pretzels, crackers, and water, she was willing to subject herself to being pulled around. Needless to say we opted for the 10 mile route, not the 20 miles we had originally planned.
I'm already scouting out other riding options for Alette....it is never too early to start a healthy passion :)
