Not a commute per se but my last ride of the year, probably. I took kiddo to daycare on the back seat. I had arranged to meet a friend and ride from there, but he wasn't evident. I was running about 20 min late, but he sent no word, so I don't know if he left without me or was never there. I took the new Johnny Cash art trail past the prison. A nicely equipped trail but not very straight or fast! It establishes another bike corridor across Folsom to the ARBT, which is nice to have. Then I circled back home via the dam bridge, and stopped for a banana and mineral water at the coffee shop attached to Folsom Bike (part of the TT course when the Tour of CA visits).

In other news, yesterday I tried our gigantic twin 11mo brother in 3.5yo kiddo's helmet. It fits, because his head is enormous. This same helmet went on kiddo with lots of extra padding starting at age 1.5 and he's not quite outgrown it. Still need a helmet for normal sized baby twin sister.

Also, he hates it.
