Fathers' day is, arguably, a construct created by greeting card companies. But dads who subscribe to this view secretly wish for something a little special on dads' day. Here at s24o, our fathers' day, of course, involved elements of overnight camping by bicycle: adventure, friendship, and outdoor cooking. Here's a video of breakfast on Goleta Beach, California.
I used the same trailer that I used to load with babies. This time, I loaded it with a Coleman stove, a cooler, some chairs, and beach toys. Those former babies, now cyclists of some accomplishment, rode on their own or served as stokers.
If Fathers' day is about dads spending a day in a way that celebrates fatherhood and favorite things to do, our bike-to-the-beach morning hit the mark perfectly. We laughed, adventured, ate breakfast burritos, climbed trees, and talked. It's good to be a cycling dad with cycling kids.
