New roadie in the area

My son got his first road bike yesterday. I figured work could wait and we went for a first ride.
Super low seat because he said he wants time to get used to the new bike, but otherwise he loves it.
He thinks he is the one having a great time with his new bike. Doesn't realize the bike and the great time are all for me!

I love the aero tuck at 0:14, very nice Evan.
Keep it rubber side down, and if a pedal pops up. . . push it back down!
Ride on!

Thank you peeps. We did the first real ride this weekend. We got to Danville (from Dublin) and after a break he goes "Dad! Let's get to walnut creek!" "Um.. you sure?" "YEAH!" Just short of 30 miles total. We had such a great time.
Cycling is one of the best things that ever happened to me.
