Then as we were heading home I remembered that I had originally planned to go bicycle shopping today too. So instead of going home, we went to Performance Bicycles. The first guy that tried to help us didn't seem to be too knowledgeable. He eventually had Kyra try out a bike that was too small. Then he was busy with another customer so a different guy helped us find another bike that turned out to be just the right size, plus it had an extra cushy seat! When we came back inside from test-driving that one, a different guy helped us pick out a bike rack for the car. We left the store with a nice new 26-inch bike for Kyra, new helmet, bike rack for the car, water bottle, mini-camelbak, etc. (The photo in this blog post was taken almost two weeks later, but since I'm behind on posting I'm adding it here. The photo was taken on July 23rd, just before our first bike ride together in the neighborhood on her new bike.)
When we got home, I spent a few hours cleaning out the garage while Kyra rode her new bike up and down the street. I look forward to planning bike riding adventures with her in the future!
