2008.05.31 (Sat) - We slept in this morning and after Robins wonderful waffle breakfast we packed up the bikes and took off to the river for our first ride together.
We were going to start off fairly easy with a "little" 20 mile ride along the river but Robin was doing so well on her new bike that we kept going. We stopped in Discovery Park (mile 14) to eat our packed lunch and then continue on the rest of the way to Old Sacramento, turning around at the railroad museum. After we turned around we stopped and grabbed this shot of ourselves on the river. Then we sat and watched a young girl and her family play in a fountain, it was great! After that we continued back to Goethe Park where we started our ride.
We made it back but 33 miles ended up being a bit much for the first time. We had a great ride and got a nice nap in after we got home. We are going to get a lot of nice rides in together!
Take care,
Darron
