Sounds like a good idea. I am on "Daddy Duty" every Sat. How many people have children still on training wheels or just off them?
Can we get together for a short ride on paths to local parks. Play time at the park then a ride back to a parking area. I can think of about 5 start areas and destinations off the top of my head. By the summer I will be owned by a 5 year old. Any one else in the same bog? Ross D.
