Why you don’t leave a 2-year-old alone with your bicycle
A few years after moving to California, we shot a video of our house and family at Christmastime for our friends back in Maryland.
One stop on the tour was the Men's Crisis Center, the shed in the back yard where a new dad could get in some afterhours cranking on an old bike set up on a trainer.
I was returning to the shed with the camera running when I realized I had left my inquisitive son in there alone. He had totally greased his hands on the oily bike chain. It was too funny to get angry.
I had totally forgotten about this until I ran across the other day. Now, it seems like it happened yesterday.
