Ogden River Parkway
My boy has had his training wheels off for a couple of weeks now so we decided to head out on the Ogden River Parkway. It's a nice paved trail, we usually ride between Washington BLVD and Rainbow Gardens, makes for @6 miles round trip.
This time we pulled into the parking lot on Washington BLVD, knowing that it's kind of a questionable area, saw broken window glass in one of the stalls and just decided to start at Lorin Farr Park. That made for @4.5 miles round trip up to Rainbow Gardens.
The river was very high and the trail had a decent amount of people, as it usually gets a lot of traffic.
Here's the video, and below is our tracks.

Thanks.
My boy has a bad habit of taking his feet off the pedals when he's cruising, thus resulting in the spill he had in the video. I told him "do you remember why Mark crashed? It's because his feet were off the pedals"

Nice video ! I feel guilty now, knowing that I haven't even bought a bike for my son who is very close to the same age as Porter. Great advice on the feet on the pedals. It looked like Ruby was enjoying the cruise as well.
