Katie was happy to run in the rain

Ashton learning to stand up down hill

Mom had to learn to go even slower downhill

Gage was climbing everything

This mellow switch back was no big deal, but the tighter one later when he was tired got him

He was happy to make most of the hills but he was happier when we went down them

I followed a Trogs thread that said they were going to meet at Red Hills at 9am today. Unfortunately I did not decide to join them until about 7am, so I never posted that I would be going. Turns out it was a fair weather only ride for them. Katie and I never saw a single soul. It only rained a little and It didn't bother Katie at all. She hasn't been able to go on many rides lately.
I took the whole family down to Tuttle Town on Saturday. Ashton finally warmed up to his new bike. He was singing and begging to "ride the whole thing, no short cuts". After about 10 crashes we decided he was tired enough. Gage, who has always been pretty good on the down hills amazed me by climbing almost every hill. Even after the whining started. So far the false spring has been productive, lets hope the real spring in even better.

The bottom two photos are of Ashtons first attempt at Tuttle Town. The hill he is struggling on didn't even get his attention the second trip. The first trip I thought we screwed up buying that big of a bike. The second trip he couldn't stop singing and tried every down hill, sometimes more than once.
