Put pedal to the power.

Put pedal to the power. Kids or family members don't have to be driven all over using up most of your gas consumption. Hey given a bicycle and protective gear like a bike helmet and knee protectors and away we go.
Hello! I used to ride my bike to school in the mornings. my school provided a bicycle enclosure for when it rained or snowed. I didn't feel neglected because my parents didn't drive me or my siblings either. We enjoyed taking our bikes to school.
During the weekends getting on my bike and taking off to parts unknown in my neighborhood. It was freedom to explore and have fun ridding with my friends.
We would go to the play grounds or just hang out with each other. Getting exercise outside fresh air all of these are free no gas needed. Go figure. Kids don't know how to have fun without batteries included or setting in front of the tv tube all day long. They don't know what their missing out on.
Even when I had to walk to school it was fun. Calling on my friend on the way.
Talking just about anything.
This was a time when having a bag full of marbles made me a very important person in the school play ground. Yes, that is why every other day I would go to the grocery store to get you guessed it more marbles. You were considered a very important person.

The class spelling buzzes that the teacher held teams were relaying on you to not to miss spell a word. Hey, I studied those spelling lists. I am no fool it was a team effort to win.

Summer time was any other traveling around with your bike. The play grounds always held a doll buggy parade which they gave you cray paper to decorate your bikes, wagons and oh yes buggies. The parades were great fun people would watch you ride your decorated bikes what fun. I haven' seen a doll buggy parade in years.

Winter was no different the ice rinks were crowed and kids skated until the lights went out at 10 O'clock each night. I know because I was on the ice all day until the rink closed. I even skated in the street to and from the rink until one of my friends told me it ruined my blades. That was the Christmas that i got my first pair of skates.

Recyle those sleds.

This American Flyer is in the "Flexible" tradition.

Historical note:

In the 1880s, Samuel Leeds Allen invented the first steerable runner sled, the Flexible Flyer. Since that date, the ability to steer the sled away from obstacles has proven this type of sled to be more appropriate for the safety conscious. In addition, runner sleds force the weight of the rider onto two thin runners where the pressure causes a microscopic film of snow or ice to melt as the sled passes over it. This invisible layer of fluid reduces friction, causing the sled's speed to greatly exceed that of its flat bottomed relatives. Some people who sled sometimes use ramps or jumps to increase the danger or fun factor of sledding. In some cases, the ramp or jump may send the participant over objects such as fences, boxes, plants, benches.








Recycle those sleds. Recycle those sleds for sledding. You need no batteries.
Just find a neighing park or hills that have few trees than start sledding.
You don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out, how to slide down a hill with a sled? Lesson are common sense abilities. We don't have to explain the law of physics to understand how a sled operates .
There has been a large increase of fathers passing themselves off as sledders.
They usually put their two or four on the sled to disguise themselves if anyone they know is watching. You know the saying how man think their to big to go sledding.
So they put their kids on the sled with them.
Sledding is free and no age limit for it. It's a fun activity for the whole family can enjoy.
Here are some sledding rules of safety.
Sled in designated areas that are free of trees, fences, post or any other forms of objects.

Warning do not sled were there are streets, drop offs, parking lots, river or pond that slops into at the bottom of the hill.

Positioning yourself on the sled is very important to prevent injuries.
sit in a forward position, steer with your feet or with a rope tied to the steering handles of the sled.

Never go head first on the sled this is dangerous.

For added protection use helmets, gloves, and wear layers of clothing
Sleds are important the type you use.

Do not use any sleds made out of plastic or materials that can be easily pierced by objects that are on the ground can be dangerous.

Use sleds that have runners and steering mechanism their safer than toboggans or snow disks.
More people are taking up sledding more as an outdoor activity.
Good advice to have an adult supervisor to make sure that the children are safe.
Until they are old enough to understand and apple the rules of safety.
