Hi everyone!
I am 26 years old, short (5'2") and have 3 kids ages almost 5, 3 and 1. I also have a husband :lol: but I am still trying to get him to ride with us (his available time is limited by work though).
I am getting into riding again (haven't ridden much since I was a teen). I have a Trek 4300 that I bought locally - my first non-walmart bike! I originally wanted to get into shape and exercise my German shepherd dog. I loved it SO much I want to ride it every where. Since I have 3 kids I got a child bike seat (I owned a trailer already). Well my trailer was incompatible with the bike seat so I bought a new one (Trek Gobug). After this I discover the oldest doesn't want to be hauled in the trailer (I was hoping for 1 more year before getting a TAB or something), he insists on sitting in the child seat - rather heavy. So tomorrow I will be going back to my LBS (I hope they like me) to get a TAB for him. Then I have to learn to drive a train :) .
