So I finally went out and bought an infant seat for the back of my bike. I figured I could ride Ben to daycare. He'd have fun, I'd get some much needed exercise, and we would save some fossil fuels. I got Josh to install the seat today and then I took Ben for a spin and almost immediately fell. I felt like such a bad mom (not to mention a klutz). It was just so hard to balance with all that weight on the back. So now I need to 'practice' with just the empty chair for a bit. Since I have not ridden a bike in a few years I need to get my balance back. Luckily we are both safe—I just banged up my knee a bit and he just got the hell scared out of him (not to mention the trauma that was caused). Next time I put him on a bike he will probably scream bloody murder to get down. Can you
blame him?
