Metal Cowboy
If you’re like me, and I know you are, you want to ride your bike as often as possible and still have time to spend with your kid(s).
Well, the other night, I told Ju that Ava would accompany me quite soon on an S24O.
I got the idea while I was taking a bath, drinking a beer (Negra Modelo) and reading Adventure Cyclist, when I stumbled-upon this article of a dad (Joe “Metal Cowboy” Kurmaskie) and his 2 boys (aged 5 and 7 at the time) who rode from Portland to D.C. a couple of summers ago.
I guess now they have a 3rd kid, and they ride a triple tandem with tag-a-long and a trailer:
Metal Cowboy & Family
Apparently they either plan on, or have already completed, a ride across Canada as a family.
His site is worth a visit, and I plan on picking up one of his books soon.
xoxo,
Johnny
