A Ride for ALL Ages

Kyrsten, Lucas, Evan and me

Most adults have forgotten what it is like to be a kid.  I had the opportunity this week to experience one of the simple joys of life; I went on a bike ride with my grandkids.  We started in Bellville and headed north on the bike trail.  We saw birds and a squirrel and rode over sticks and leaves.  Nobody was thinking of going to work or what we had to do tomorrow we were riding bikes.  The kids never stopped talking or smiling.  The youngest one, Lucas, started singing as he peddled his new bike.  His first ride was over 3 miles, not bad for a 4 year old.  Kyrsten wanted to ride fast; she was going 14 mph at one point.  Evan likes to mountain bike so he kept riding on the grass on the side of the bike trail.  The next time you pass a family on the bike trail, remember the fun you had when you were a kid.
