Quick blog and run but I wanted to unload some pics of our Thanksgiving ride to the Philly Parade. The 11 mile round trip ride was perfect mid 50s weather. I was stripping off layers by the time we got down there. Being 20 weeks pregnant also keeps a girl toasty!
I rode the little guy down on the Halsted with the Yepp Maxi. It's nice to be able to stand out of the saddle with him on back and he napped leaning forward into me on the way home which worked well. But the mini was great for instant smiles and communication with the little, I miss it!

Installing a Yepp Maxi on the Civia Halsted

I bought the seat used off of eBay so I had to take inventory to see if anything was missing. One extra bolt and the key to lock the seat were both missing, bummer. I need to contact Yepp, I hope they can replace the key.



So of course nothing is straight forward with me. Clumsy central. I drop a tiny bolt behind our radiator. Like beyond hand reaching distance.

I finally get the rest of the adaptor back together. I curse a bit more getting the seat on. Because easy things get hard when you already have been frustrated.

I get everything tightened and go to put the little guy on. I realized we need to reverse our kickstand to lift the front instead of back wheel. I tipped it back putting M on. Jeez. Little guy though was jazzed and I had to break it to him we weren't going anywhere as we were still in our pjs.


As I told my mom while she was searching for gas in wake of the hurricane issues in my hometown I have an apocalyptic bike ready.
