Tonight I was ready to head out for my ride around 645, but Jason really wanted to go. I have been trying to explain the difference when me and daddy go compared to when we ride as a family. I knew he couldn't keep up with my average 12-14 mph obviously, but I thought if I went slower in a higher gear (3.6) I would still get in a good ride. Well I did, I am feeling the burn, and I can definitely see more tolerance with some hills that I am hitting.
We went slower at 6-8 mph, occasionally higher, but it was nice to be out with him, and he really enjoyed himself. He kept up. Rode where he was suppose to. Was considerate to other riders. Overall, he is amazing. But we all knew that : )
As we were hitting our half way mark to turn around, we saw the hubby and the twins pull up in the van. (On a stellar side note, when he pops up randomly, anywhere, my heart flutters.) He had decided to drive along the trail in case Jason wasn't doing well. Jason said he was and dod not want to leave with his dad. He continued his ride with me and by the time we got back home, we had ridden exactly 6 miles.
This will defiently be something we can do together. Even 2-3 times a week at 6 miles with Jason is still good. And it's great one on one time. Now we need to look at getting him a new bike.
