Our First Family Bike of 2009

 

Here is the "Fam" after riding the American Tobacco Trail last Sunday afternoon, our first bike ride together here:)

Since last year Kelley has purchased a jell seat to make her Trek bike more comfy, & Seth bought himself a Trek bike for his birthday last November (plus we gave him/them a bike rack), so this was their first time on the ATT:)
Hurray!

Oh, what a fun trip on a warm breezy March day:)
We covered 6.6 miles--not bad for the first group bike ride of the season:)
Also Keith & I were excited to see work is progressing on the Chatham County section of the trail. Eventually the Wake County trail will connect to the Durham portion via Chatham County.

Afterward Seth, Kelley, Skye, Keith & I headed over to Baskin-Robbins to get ice cream:) Ah, what a nice way to end a Sunday outing:)

Keith wants us to try out a trail along the New River just over the NC border in Va., near Galax, soon. And our neighbor Christa has suggested biking the Potomac River Trail in DC:) Sounds like some neat biking ventures ahead:)

Hope to see many of you on the sweet & shady American Tobacco Trail soon!
