A Moment of Sanity-Saving-5 miles in the rain (11 more total for the week)

Clipping my helmet. Jose wouldn't come outside to take a proper photo.
A week of rain and flat trailer tires have kept the boys and me inside more than any of us would have liked. Having not ridden since the six miles to and from 'Nama's house on Monday, I was certainly feeling a bit stir-crazy. Luckily, I had a couple of errands to run and with Jose home to watch the kiddos, I took advantage of the situation and hopped on the Linus for a quick ride. Of course, the second I stepped outside, the rain started up again so back inside I went for my rain pants and jacket. Sometimes it's nice to stay dry. The ride was fantastic, just what I needed. The Linus's sturdy tires, fenders, and upright riding position, not to mention the fact that I didn't have to worry about loading/unloading the kids or dealing with the trailer. This all made for a joyful, carefree trip, despite the rain. 

The Mundo is set to arrive in any day now and I can't wait! The Mundo has a similar riding style and I won't be dealing with extra trailer tires and multiple locks. I'll just be able to hop on the bike and go!

I need a nice setup like that for commuting and backup when all my other tires are flat or something is broken or someone else wants to go for a ride with me.

How did you comment so fast??? You can always use my Linus! When my Mundo gets here, I'll be able to tow other bikes around so I can bring bikes to people and force them to ride with me! Maybe I'll start a bike-towing company...
