Biker Logan

After dusting off and oiling up we got my bike back on the road, with and addition --- baby bike seat. I've been wanting to get one I think since Logan was 6 months old. These was taken on our first excursion and Logan was loving it.(This little trips was about 5 km) Our next trip started well, decided to see what Craig's work bike route was. Logan was great all the way there, even had a little snooze. On the way back, I decided to go along the creek instead of the city (versus the city route) and it was beautiful, until the first detour and then the second detour --- where the heck we were going I had no idea. Finally, back on the trail, and what do they have on the trail? A set of HUGE stairs --- WHAT THE HECK? How stupid is that? Fortunately, a really nice guy carried my bike down as I took Logan out and carried him. So, Logan until this point was great (it had already been about 2 hours in total this trip) I then try to put Logan back into the seat and Logan pretty much expressed that was a NO GO! He was done. And then, I realized he had lost a shoe (one of his good ones) along the way. Well, no turning back for that as Logan is screaming and flailing everywhere. But what do I do? I'm pretty much in the middle of nowhere, one shoe, no soother at this point, so I put him back in and he screamed for about 20 minutes before he finally settled. So, moral of the story, second time on a bike with a toddler, stick to 10 kms (not 30), take a track not under construction and always remember the soother -- just in case :)
