Panera Bread, Here We Come!


Panera Bread is turning into one of KJ's favorite eateries (An Orange Scone and Apple Juice, please...). He got a Panera Gift Card from Santa, so on December 27th we decided to head down there and try the card out.

I can see this becoming a favorite winter-time ride. The distance is decent (9.5 miles) and for the most part were are not on any main roads. Plus we get a chance to warm up and eat before the ride back. Much better than staying outside in some cold deserted park.

KJ seemed to drag a bit on the ride down there. A couple of times I needed to remind him that he needed to pedal too! But as we were getting ready to leave panera and head back home, I noticed KJ was bouncing around, full of energy. So I told him it would be nice if he channeled some of that energy into his pedaling. Well, I got my wish! KJ kept up a wonderful steady pace for the entire trip back, most of which is uphill to one degree or another.
