Group biking at Minnehaha Falls - WHEW!

For our friend Jacob's birthday, we took him biking on a group bike at Minnehaha Falls.  There were 8 of us (2 moms and 6 children) with only 2 of us able to reach the pedals.  Let me tell you, I'm glad we didn't know how hard this would be as we may not have chosen to do it.  I have to say it was a great time.  


It was wonderful to see the kids pitch in when the mommy's couldn't get us up the hills.  They did such a great job exploring the bike and problem solving.  They figured out that they could use the center bar for one foot and scooter with the other to help.  When that didn't work, they would get out and push!  After starting out with a few gripes and groans, in the end, we got back to return the bike and everyone wanted to keep going. 



Yes, we are all smiling...because we didn't know what we were in for.



Yes, we ran into the tree!










Thank you all for the push and the friendly woman for taking our photo!
