bike adventure- BEAR!

we've been using a baby bike seat for sayan here in boulder which has been fine, he enjoys for the most part though he can't nap while we're out. while in aspen we decided to rent a chariot for him so we could take a longer ride and have him be more comfortable. he was so much more comfortable and we are official converts! it's apparently way way safer too.



















so we are riding along the trail, gabbing away, i'm looking back at jai and then i look forward and surprise!!! right in front of us on the trail, maybe 10 yards ahead is a huge black bear staring at us. we screech on the brakes and prepare to turn and ride back but the bear takes a long look at us then meanders across the trail and up the mountain. i creep back and wait to make sure there are no babies (no sense getting between mama and baby) then i bike quickly on ahead while jai plays national geographic. sadly sayan was sleeping during our encounter and missed the whole thing.













































we stopped to play in the beautiful river on our way back...
