Memorial Day bike ride

Great weather + Day off = Family Bike Ride!!

Today we took off to the Neuse River Greenway for a family bike ride. Eli was eager to beat his last ride of 7 miles and Cole was excited to try out the trail-a-bike. Both boys really love going on rides which makes Mommy & Daddy REALLY happy! It was such a fun time. We saw lots of folks in the river on kayaks and tubes. When the boys get a little bigger, we'll try some of that too. 
Eli is always ready to go on a bike ride
His bike skills have increased so much over the past few months. It IS much more fun to ride when you're good at it. =) 
Our rider boys - Cole is all geared up in a jersey and bike shorts!

Eli got lots of comments on his climbing ability. He just dances on the pedals and smoothes his way up the hill. He will be unstoppable when he gets gears!
Cole didn't contribute much pedaling to Daddy's load but he sure was happy and had fun. 
Daddy's paceline (notice Cole's lazy legs!)
I love this covered area - reminds me of the mountains. 
HAD to include this one. I blurred it a bit though. Turned around and my little biker boy was taking a nature break. Hilarious with his CamelBak on!
Break / Snack time!
Love our biking family!
On the way back, Eli dropped a little bit behind. He had been riding really hard. 
His signature - two different colored socks. You'll definitely be able to pick him out of the peloton!
He was tired but made it back - over 9 miles total!!
