half bike

Monday evening after supper we decided to see if Glitter would fit on the half-bike (what we call a trail-a-bike / trailercycle). Glitter is about the same age as Sparkle when we first put her on the half-bike, but a lot shorter! At first I set Glitter on the seat and held my arms ready to catch her while Wander walked the bike up and down the sidewalk. When she begged for more, Wander mounted up and took her for a spin around the block.


Glitter looks so tiny perched up there! Her hands were chilled to the bone, but she had a huge grin on her face.


Previously, Sparkle had considered the half-bike to be her own, and she was a bit jealous of Glitter riding on it. However, she put on a good face and thoroughly enjoyed her turn to enjoy the breeze without having to worry about steering or pedaling.


Now, if only we had the funds to get the Bike Friday Family Tandem!
