Riding his first bike

We finally made it to Winter Park much to Logan's and mom's relief.  He screamed the last hour of the trip to Winter Park and everyone was hungry.  I guess we learned some important lessons on traveling with Logan on this trip.  Everyone needs more breaks from the car is what it boils down to.

The next morning waking up feeling refreshed from not being in the car we set out to explore Winter Park.  This is where we went skiing in 2002 and the ski resort here was the first one that dad ever skied!  So it is fitting this was the location for some of Keagan's firsts.  The Cabroliet was his first gondola ride.  It was short but fun to be up so high.














The Family Bike Fest part of Colorado Freeride Festival started that Thursday morning and there were not many people there yet.  It was dreary weather but the rain/downpour (or dare I say it snow) did not fall until later that day when daddy was trying to fly fish again.  We spotted a playground with a train so immediately headed over to find Keagan climbing his first rope ladder all on his very own might we add.  He also got in line to put on a helmet and try a Strider bike.

July 25th

Having another adult tell Keagan he had to wear a helmet and how to "ride" the bike proved very useful.  He did not mind the helmet and took to striding with the bike quickly.  The tract he rode on was very conducive to learning how to control the bike without danger of falling.  So overall it was the best first riding experience a little boy (without a big brother to help) could have asked for.
