We decided to bike through a trail in a place called Deep Lock Quarry in Peninsula, Ohio today. We went there, but didn’t end up going to the quarry, but to the paths that joined up to it, which were a lot longer. The signs also said that bikers can only ride on paved pathways, and the quarry path was dirt. So, maybe we’ll go walking there some time!
I need to tighten my helmet…it’s kind of lopsided…
The bike ride was really fun, and had beautiful scenery. The only problem is that at the end we had to bike up a pretty steep hill, and we did it without stopping, so we were both really tired at the end! Also, today, for the very first time in his life, Silas peed in the woods! He was quite proud of himself!
Here’s a video of us before, during and after our exhausting bike ride today! Some of the clips are lower quality, because when I would video while riding, I would accidentally switch into compact mode, and I didn’t always realize it. Anyway, here it is!
P.S. Not sure why Silas had his DS with him, but that was silly.

Biking – a super fun summer sport! I have great memories of our family biking trip to Banff with other families from church! Everyone on bikes! …and a Bear in the camp!
Keep up the Biking! Maybe we can do some in Banff sometime…in the Beautiful Rocky Mountains!

Looks like a lot of fun! I love bike riding! I’d really like to get into it, but it is so inconvenient b/c we live on gravel. I would need to get proper bike racks for my van or something to haul the bikes.
