How did you get the cat to stay still for that?

Most cats I've had would start twitching their back as soon as you put the first one on, then give you the stink eye by the time the third was placed, probably want a piece of your hand by the time you got the 5th one on.

3 mile ride with my 2 girls today (8 & 5), averaged 4mph and made a few stops to play. I think my 8yo would be okay to take on longer rides but I'm not sure about my 5yo yet. Might be easier for them with bigger bikes, and I have a feeling Santa will be getting them new ones

Just rode to my fiancee's place and back. Only 4 km but it's summer here and it's 39C - that's 102 in your money and with a short 10% climb on the way there and a long 6% on the way back, I'm wondering why I'm sweating 
Wonder what snow's like, we don't get the stuff here.

As I've found with my 11 year old, they're more interested in fun than distance - as soon as it starts to hurt, it's not fun. A track with play grounds and a picnic at the turn around work for my little monster

i would bring my dog but she's a 90lbs lab that is winded after half a mile. I have no trailer
I would throw my 5yo in it, she would get a kick out of it

You gonna eat that?
I know the feeling.
I did the Saturday breakfast ride this morning.
That's BFer nkfrench at the front of the pack in the pic above
We ended up in downtown Fort Worth
The young man on the right rode with us for the first time in several years. He started his riding career with us when he was 11 on a Wal-Mart Schwinn his grandma bought for him. He's now 17 and riding with the Garmin Junior team.
He said he didn't want to take his helmet off because he had a terrible case of helmet hair.
I ended up with 43 miles for the day. Everyone else was in their spandex riding geared bikes. I was in jeans, riding my fixie.

im trying to get them ready for a round trip of 6 miles. Unfortunately the 3 mile ride to where im trying to go doesn't have any play areas to stop :/
i would bring my dog but she's a 90lbs lab that is winded after half a mile. I have no trailer I would throw my 5yo in it, she would get a kick out of it

I would throw my 5yo in it, she would get a kick out of itI just bought a cheap kiddie trailer off eBay. You'd barely notice your lab in it unless you hit a hill. Sometimes though, it's easier to leave the mutt home, not because he's trouble ( he's not) but more because it's just one more thing to worry about. Of course, I could take the dog and leave the kids home
