Snow trike fun

As I said in my last post, if it involves a lake (frozen) and pedaling, it might as well go on the same blog.  I have been out having more fun on the trike.  Our 3-year old was enjoying it too.  I think we will need some better safety gear and a better towing setup, but pulling a snow tube was one of the reasons I wanted the extra stability of a trike.  I was actually really surprised how easy it was to pick up speed.  I was being very cautious on this first trial.   I think he is a little young for me to really cruise around full speed and still be "fun".  But in a few more years, this will be a different story.

The ice is plowed on this lake for an annual pond hockey tournament.  That's great because otherwise it would have at least 6 inches of snow, and I wouldn't go anywhere.
