This weekend was pretty active riding wise. I had to run several errands on the bike including a trip to Home Depot in Vinings where there was no bike rack so I wound up cabling my bike to one of their prefabricated children’s area thingajig. After that I decided to take my youngest out to work on her street riding skills we cruised around area roads before cutting through Cochran Shoals over to

Hi, I don't mean to state the blindingly obvious or anything, but one bit of advice I have with riding with the kids is to ride behind them. That way you can see what's coming, bellow instructions, etc. Whenever I ride in front, I find myself always looking around, peering in the mirrors, unable to communicate effectively, etc. You've probably already figured this out, but it's worth nothing for newer kid-cycling parents.
Great advice. We actually took a little ride yesterday and the only time it got hairy was when she fell behind me in a turn and merge and a car passed too close. Luckily she's already learned to yell idiot driver. By the way Matt your tour with your kids was a great story.
