Safety first

It's amazing how much of a different feel you get of the city when you see it from a scooter rather than a car.

Sometimes I get moments of panic when holding onto Jeremiah though. I wish I was one of those kids with the super over-protective parents riding their bikes with full gear - helmet, knee and elbow pads, and wrist guards. But I think maybe I could also use shin guards on my legs and some for my forearms too. Just in case.

For now I'll hold back on the excessive protective measures and stick to my helmet (plus sunscreen).
