Weekend Riders

We road our bikes tonight with our friend Courtney and Mary's sister Beth. We mostly just ride around our complex. It sounds lame, but it is totally fun and reminds me of my worry-free youth. You know, ride all day, mom gets worried, and come back at dusk. I didn't watch alot of tv or play tons of video games. Nothing beats taking your bmx bike(mountain bikes were lame back then)on sweat jumps and getting dirty. I remember my Dad saying more times than I can remember that my name was "mud". It was not that I saught out dirt and mud, it was just that it didn't bother me to get dirty to get where I wanted to go.

So now that Mary and I are older we keep our bikes on the road because they were made that way. They are Cruiser bikes with white-wall tires and large chrome fenders. We don't do jumps, maybe puddles but no mud.
