Do you bring bicycles?

Will it be that horrible if we don't bring our kids bikes?

We have done both. One of our trips only included 2 days in the parks and the rest of the time we spent riding bikes, swimming and all the other Ft. Wilderness fun. On the flip side we've had trips that we bought passes for all of our days and they were too tired to do ANY bike riding.

My kids would think it was horrible if I didn't bring their bikes. You know, they enjoy the activities at the campground and riding around the fort much more than going in the parks. Regardless-have a great stay!

If it's difficult to fit them in your packing, don't worry about it. If you can at least get the kids' bikes in, better safe than sorry.

Our first trip was Jan. '06 and all my boys wanted to do was hit the parks. If you can go all day (and we surely did), when you do get back to the camper, they'll be too pooped to go riding. But if you head back early enough to do some grilling or something similar, it's a pretty safe area to let the kids go riding instead of standing beside you saying, "When's dinner gonna' be ready?"

Where you guys from in NC anyway?

DH has decided that we'll bring the bikes. We have a bike rack on our pop up, so it's not that huge of a deal.

Lawnspecialties, I'm from the Winston-Salem area.

If you are staying any length of time, it is a good thing. The kids love it. We have stayed as little as three days and still bring the bike for the DS4. He loves it.

Sounds great for you guys. I'm sure you'll love the Fort. We'll be pulling in on Saturday, the 26th and can't wait.
