My kids have always been lucky enough to have really nice bikes .... but this $30 special from K-Mart has been their favorite by far. A blue light bargain that I couldn't pass up.
It actually was purchased as an extra bike that they could share or use when friends were over.
It became much more...
Jake, Mandy and JJ going for a ride...
And they're off! A lotta good times were had by all on this little black bike.

The permanent bend in the handle bars ???? Well that happened when they decided that it would be fun if the driver closed his eyes and the others told him which way to go. Yeah, great idea guys! The bend is a result of the CRASH that followed this brainstorm.
We let go of this bike last week....it was dirty, worn and haggard, the paint was scraped, there was rust and of course that nice little bend in the handle bars....but it was still the bike that was grabbed first by anyone looking for a lift. The nice bikes were always passed up for this one. The FUN bike. Everyone argued over who got to ride on this one. This was settled many times by the bike carrying multiple passengers and the other bikes remaining in the garage.
But, cars are the ride of choice now....
Jake hasn't been on a bike since he got his license and Mandy starts driving next summer.
So it was time....
I hope that someone in Kansas has good times on board :)
