Bike Ride to the Elroy Fair


After we wore ourselves out with the dogs Reeve and Kyle really wanted to go for a bike ride. Tom and I decided to surprise them and ride to the Elroy Fair. It's about 8-10 miles by bike from our house, and the majority of the way is on the Omaha Bike Trail. It connects with the Elroy-Sparta bike trail which is famous for being the Nation's first Rails-to-Trails bike trail. Meaning that they converted the former train route into a bike path. It's extremely easy to ride with no hills, and it is fairly well maintained.

Reeve had a blast riding the trail behind bike that started out attached to Tom's bike. It was Tom's new mini-motor. Everytime I'd look at them Reeve was the only one peddling!
