Belated Birthday Ride

Last year for Marty's 50th, Liz and Ed gave Marty a gift certificate to rent one of those fun bikes down at Alki.  Every time we were down there we either had forgotten the certificate at home or there were just too many people on bikes and beach to enjoy a ride.  Nearly a year after his birthday we finally made the trek down to Alki with that one purpose in mind.  And it was worth the wait.  Everyone had a great time!!    Marty and the kids at the entrance to Schmitz Park, our little piece of wilderness right in our own backyard and our favorite route down to Alki. 

Instead of the bigger 4 person bikes, Josie picked out this low rider.  

 We had it for two hours and barely made it back in time to turn it back in.  True to Marty's character, we took it off road and in places, down and all around and up Jack Block Park and other places that I'm sure were off limits... but we had fun!! Other than Marty, we all switched up our seats and positions several times. Although I felt like a slacker the little back seat was kick!

Thanks again, Hare Family :)
