Loved those 24 mile bike rides to the ocean my dad would take my brother and myself on many Saturdays. My brother and I were just on Schwinn Sting Rays, while my dad rode his ten speed. I am glad it happened that way because it built strong legs for us. Really, so much fun. I'll never forget this and thousands of other things he did with us. What a dad.
