Lucy is getting much better at riding her bike

Look at me!

Bike

Has Mummy got some new panniers for her bike? There seems to be something protruding from the aft side of her bike?

Not at all! It is Lucy attached using a Trail-Gator. In years to come this may be how Mummy takes Lucy to school. They might need a bit of practice first though. You can't use it with stabilisers (as this would prevent you cornering) and neither Mummy or Lucy are famed for their sense of balance.

Lucy's First Bike

As a very special surprise, when we get home from Yorkshire we discovers that Pink and Stewby have got Lucy her first bike. Less of a surprise is that it is pink. With princesses on it. Very pink. Being very responsible they have also included a helmet (also pink). In fact the only shock is that the high visibility jacket isn't pink.

(Incidentally - this is far funnier when it has "The Chain" by Fleetwood Mac playing in the background as originally intended. Unfortunately YouTube spotted my use of their tune and disabled the audio in a cruel and heartless example of corporate spoilsportiness. So if you wouldn't mind humming it from 29 seconds in - you know - the theme music from Formula One)

On Your Bike

Mummy has brought Lucy to Richmond Park for her first go on a full sized bike.

Is Lucy doing a Royal Wave in a Royal Park?

The ladies set of on their adventure.
