The day has finally come!! Ask me to train the kids for a marathon or 5K, no problem, I'll have them ready. This cycling thing for 5 days straight is new to me. I don't remember the last time I rode a bike. So we did the best we could training the kids. The hills in our neighborhood were a great challenge for them. The flat trails are a piece of cake. Eric has been wanting to do a bike trip for years, but you know, work, kids, wife, extended family, and basically life got in the way. Well, here is our chance to experience his dream with him. We will be cycling the Loire Valley, France with a tour group from Backroads. Can you tell by our shirts??
We spent most of our summer mornings riding around the neighborhood. I know the kids loved waking up every morning to my Potomac clapping. They asked if I could do a different clap everyday. I know the kids and Eric are ready for this, but I'm just hoping my running legs will get me through this cycling thing.
We're about to board. See you in Paris.

Biking is a great way to explore the trails or a long country road and get some exercise at the same time. It is also an easy way to get around town or commute to work.
