Hartland mountain biking

This was our first family mountain biking adventure. There are some great trails maintained all by volunteers about 20 minutes outside of Victoria. Bennett absolutely loved it. Rob had a few falls. Glenn tried her best with her balance bike, but some of hills were just too steep. She loved the mud though! We'll be back- more to come.
