Allow time

They say allow time to spend with your kids. What they don't tell you is how long it will take. I talked my wife into tearing away from work for a "quick" ride with the kids. We have been trying to take the kids on South Fork trail for a long time now. It turns out that Stoker had the same plan, so we met at the bridge and started climbing. There was lots of whining from my boys on the way up. On the way down Gage and Christian took lead and started hauling. They had an awesome ride. Ashton was a little over his head in the single track and more than a little tired. He crashed a couple times and cried a lot. In the end he said he had fun and next time we will let him skip the technical section. We ended up having to buy linner out because it took so long we were all starving.
Gage and Christian were tearing it up. Apparently if you stick your tongue out you go faster. Stoker is chasing the boys while I convince Ashton to keep going.
Jeanie was chasing Ashton for a while. Things were still good at this point.
You can see behind Stoker this whole area was logged last year. Thanks to a couple of locals the trail has been fully restored.
