Biking, Biking and more Biking

About 4 weeks ago Lucas started to ride his bike on his own!!! We got him the bike for his 5th birthday and rather than getting the right size we got one size bigger than what he needed. We tried all last summer to get him to ride his bike but it was really just too big for him. This spring when he was finally tall enough to sit on the seat and touch the ground he was riding it within a couple of weeks. After riding around the block the first time with his dad he said, "Dad, I think I love biking as much as you do now." :)
Speaking of biking, we went to our first Motorcross event at the Rocky Mountain Raceways and even though it was spring time it was snowing, blowing and freezing. Steve was out of town so the boys and I went by ourselves and after watching the guys on bikes warm up for an hour we had had enough. The competition had not even started when we left but by the time we got to the truck all of our fingers and toes were FROZE! We finally warmed up right before we got home so we decided to stop for some ice cream.
A couple of Saturdays ago Steve and I took the boys to grandma Judy's house and we took our bikes downtown for the Tour de Brewtah. We got to ride around to four different breweries and received a pint of beer at each one. Needless to say I was feeling no pain at the end of our ride.
