GIrls in Day Care means we can ride together!

It's summer which means Mark isn't working, but Katie still is.  You would think that this translates to lots of riding time.  Well, dear reader, I must admit it is still a struggle to find all the time.  With two little girls it is quite difficult to find the time to ride together, so we are riding separately now. 
Today we had the girls in day care so we could go for a longer ride to Lake Michigan together on the tandem.  We are still trying to dial in the fit of the tandem.  It is quite different than our single bikes.
Check out today's ride HERE
We were grateful to not be riding in the heat that the Sea to Sea riders are enduring right now.  Yesterday the group dealt with 112 degree heat.  YOUCH!
I was at Ada Bike shop picking up a helmet for Katie and some gloves for me when fellow Sea to Sea Rider Gary Nederveld walked in.  His bike had fallen off the rack on 131 at highway speeds and was pretty banged up.  It sounded like he needed a new bike.  I am praying he gets a solution in time.  Shiprock rolls out on July 8!
