My biking man

My Lance Armstrong
I am so proud of JR. Today he biked over 20 miles!!! He just got a new bike this week and has been very eager to ride it so this morning he got up early and took off. I think I sparked a flame in him when I said, "I will believe it when I see it." ha! He had been talking about how he was going to ride to our friends house in the next town over and I thought he was crazy. I feel a new hobby coming on :)


here is the new bike.. so fancy!!

i think he needs another seat! that one doesnt look very comfy!!! :) now you all dont need another car he can just ride the bike everywhere since gas is so expensive--- add a basket and he is good to go!!!

Before you know it he will be like my Dad riding in bike marathons! Dad just did the 3 state/ 100 mile ride in Chattanooga for the third year in a row. Every year he says that he wont be returning because it is just too hard and he is too old! They ride up Signal, and Lookout mountain... can you imagine? This year he got 9 1/2 miles into it and the lady next to him wrecked him and messed up his bike. He was bummed. Oh well, there is always next year.
Go JR!!!! Riding 20 miles is a great accomplishment! I bet he will get the skinny legs like Dad has now! Ha Ha!
