Good stuff!
Reminded me of a time riding bicycles with family. My 3 year daughter was in the Burley trailer attached to my bike, 5 year son on his bike, wife riding along side. At the top of a very steep trail hill with a hard left at the bottom I go about 40 feet down first and wait for my son. Up till now he has demonstrated competent bike handling so thought this would be a cake walk. Nope. He rides down with zero brakes and terror in his face. I unclip from the pedals as he goes past and lay my bike down to hold the trailer, then run after my son. About 4 steps I am already going down, the grade was steep, and just got ahold of his collar and pulled him off and slid on my side holding him. He was laughing, I was hamburger on my right leg and arm. Wife was very happy!
