Tyler's new bike


The other day Tyler and Darren went to the shop to assemble Tyler's new bike. He has been waiting very patiently but ever so excited. His old bike was so small on him and didn't have any gears. This photo is the morning after the bike was home. Tyler was awake at 7:00 AM. He ran to my room to get me to show me the bike. (They had gotten home around 11 the night before from the shop)

This photo is Tyler showing Ella his bike. I didn't stage it or anything. The conversation went something like... Ella these are the gears. See, I can shift it up here and they change back here. And then look Ella... these are the brakes, they shift right here....

He has put in a few good miles these last few days. He and Darren plan on doing a few little mountain bike races together this summer.
