A Bicycle (Trailer) Built for Two

The USA Pro Cycling Challenge came through Denver today on a route that passed near Sam's parents house, so we borrowed bike trailers from our neighbors (each one could hold two kids but neither Sam nor I are in any shape to pull 55 lbs of kid plus the weight of the trailer) and hopped on our bikes with Ava Grace's dad Matt McGovern. It was the first time I'd ridden my bike in over 3 years, but I did all right (and my bike shorts and jersey still fit!).

Sam used to be a gonzo road cyclist and was giddy at the thought that Levi Leipheimer, Cadel Evans, and the Schlecks were riding the same roads he used to ride.

Aunt Sarah was at the Flemings' when we pulled up

Cyclists! This was the 2nd group, no big names in here

They flew by at ~30 mph, so we weren't out in the hot sun very long

Tour de France, here I come (he's built like a cyclist - skinny with long legs!)
