Post-Child Mountain Biking

We embarked on our first post child mountain bike trip over Presidents Day weekend. The following is a list of a few minor adjustments that had to be made.

1. Didn’t Go Alone: Although Claud and Brian are our favorite biking buddies child or no child, it made it easier to do this together, since they also have a toddler. We took turns riding the trail, two would ride and two would hang out on a bouldering pad in the parking lot with the kids.
2. Couldn’t Camp: The nights were still too cold for youngins so instead we biked near St.George where we could all say at Hotel Topham.
3. Lack of Dogs: Pre-Child we would have had three dogs with us…instead we only had one.
4. No Sun Worshiping: Instead of basking in the first sun of the season, we had to hide baby skin from it.
5. Photographs: Normally we would have had a few photos of us on the trail, us sitting around the campfire, Claud and Brian rallying their minivan, 18 pictures of the dogs, etc… instead we managed to get this one photo of Ari in a bumbo on the bouldering pad.Over all it was a success! Were going to try camping and road tripping next week, and in a few months backpacking!
