I took Harris to Harmond Park to try mountain biking today. I wasn't sure how well he could pedal the Schwinn Moab, as it's still a bit big for him. After having no problems on the North Loop, we rode the entire course.
Harris was amazing. I could see him using both his biking and XC ski background on the trail. He skillfully rolled the down hills and handled more technical stuff easily. I enjoyed watching him ride.
The title quote comes from a chat we had while sharing a snickers blizzard after the ride. I'm proud of my kids.

sounds like there is still a lot to be proud of!TomM
He's gonna have to be to reach the bars with that 120 or whatever kind of old-school stem that is on there. Maybe it's just a picture-distortion thing. Those are 26 inch wheels right?
Good point. A shorter stem on that bike would make a huge difference.
Wait a minute I missed the point.
Great eye. The picture next to the white fence is the original set-up when I was looking to sell the bike. I have a 70mm stem on now. The wheels are 26" The bike will fit him better next year, but he loves it, and does well on it.
nice rides are all over the place! ;)
