Fall Cabin Camping

Did an overnight cabin camping trip with the family last night.

12 miles, wide gravel trail.

Dummy carried science equipment and camping gear for a family of 3.

Cycling in Europe

A friend shared this.

He's living in Switzerland and says this video pretty much sums up what riding in Europe is like.

Looks like fun.

Junior Polo

We had a picnic with friends yesterday. AnSoN brought some polo gear and a few us dorked around with the mallets.

Little man spent a good chunk of the afternoon running around in the grass with a mallet in his hand.

Later I let him sit on the back deck of the Dummy with me and he swatted away at the ball on the polo court.


Apparently he hadn't gotten his fill.
When we got home he snagged a mallet out of the garage and hopped on his trike.
I may have to throw together a few junior size mallets and organize some strider bike polo.

Taste of Fall

Got out for a fall ride in the mountains early this afternoon. Nice little family ride, beautiful fall colors.



Tasty little blueberry stash when we stopped for a break.


Little wrider tromping around.

Mrs. took advantage of the situation, opting to ride trails down towards home rather than ride in the car. When we saw her again some 1,100 ft lower down she was splattered with mud and grinning like a fool.

Back in the Stable

GSC brought the Dummy back home today.



He had his Kona cross bike loaded on the bike so he could get himself back home

Small Victories

I feels like a little victory each time I ride home from the store without breaking any eggs.
