Tour de France

I think I will sign the kids up for the Tour de France next summer. Ok, maybe a Tour de Quincy. BOTH kids were on their two (ok, four with the training wheels) bikes yesterday doing laps around the boat. They did SO well! Peddling on their own, Sophia cruising on her giant 14" wheel bike, braking and even managing to stay balanced over the monstrous dips and lumps that make up our driveway. The only problems the kids ran into was when the back wheel went over a dip too slowly while the training wheels were on higher ground thus rendering the bike to be a stationary bike with the back wheel spinning in the air. Oh, Dylan had some steering issues too as he would stare at his legs and feet rather than the direction he was headed and collided with the boat a few times.
