Bikes, again

Expect a lot of chatter about gardening, likely combined with some smugness. Such as, our heirloom tomatoes, which are being grown organically, taste sublime when combined with hickory smoked salt, and are especially flavorful after a bike ride. Speaking of bikes…
Seed trays and dirt, brought to you by bike. This ride was fun as it was early, and Barley (dog) ran along side us. Between heavy loads and excited dogs we were a spectacular bike crash waiting to happen.

Aleka, who has always ridden, got a new bike last summer. A Linus, made for casual warm weather rides. It has seen intermittent use over the winter, but a summer full of patios and backyards, accompanied by cocktails, is its true calling. In the mean time, kids bikes at Costco have been sampled.

Lastly, my niece and nephew are absolutely killing it on bikes. Surgery has kept Morgan off of two wheels, but she will be ready to roll right in time for spring in Virginia.
