Colin likes his hand-me-down "Cat Bike" because it has both hand brakes and foot brakes, as well as a kickstand. But it's lookin' a little small for him and it's hard to ride uphill with just one speed. So today we visited our friends at Paradise Creek Bicycles and came home with a new bike!
We settled on the 6-speed Raleigh Rowdy, tricked out with a kickstand and water bottle holder. We even borrowed a helmet from the shop and had a great ride home together. The Rolling Hills were no match for Colin and his Rowdy. I can't wait to take a longer ride on the Latah/Chipman Trail or up at Heyburn State Park.
