Biking the green line

Gary took the girls to ride their bikes on the green line during spring break. He and I have run the entire 6 1/2 mile trail out and back and it is perfect for kids to rides the bikes on since it is flat and relatively few places to cross the street. It was a beautiful day and the girls ended up riding 5 miles. Gary was walking and was worn out. He has since purchased a "green line bike" to use to ride with the kids since all of his bikes are so nice and he uses them to train and race on for his bike races and triathlons. The new bike will be a knock around bike. Caroline says she is ready to try without training wheels, so we will see how that goes in the near future. It was rough going when Anna decided to do that and it about did Gary in! The girls are so different in personality so hopefully Caroline will be easier to teach to ride without the training wheels. Great day on the green line and we are so lucky to have such a resource in Memphis.
