Ok, so I thought I'd start a thread to keep track of any outings I do. I shall indicate if I'm with my children or not and I very much doubt they will be detailed or indeed of any great accomplishment but everyone starts somewhere right
When I've got the children with me its usually either a 9 year old on her own bike and a 3 year old on a bike seat behind me, or two 9 year olds on their own bikes or all three 9 year olds and the bike seat aswel, so as you can tell "adult riding" may be few and far between.
(wk= with kids)
Tuesday - 4.6miles (wk), nice gentle ride out to the nearest town, just getting my 9 year old used to being on a road.
Wednesday - 7.6miles (wk), great ride, quite early so not much traffic, proud of how well my daughter did.
Need to have a good check of the bikes though and perhaps a new seat for me, would like a new bike but with the child seat on the back it doesnt seem worth it until i get more time out alone.
Of course feel free to comment or add your own beginner rides.
