Meet Our Newest Little Cyclist: Baby Luke

We’re happy to announce that ‘TravellingTwo’ has become (unofficially, at least), ‘Travelling Three‘! Baby Luke arrived in the world on Saturday morning.

To say we’re walking on clouds would be an understatement. If the website is a bit quiet over the coming weeks, you know why. We’re doing something far more important than email and blogs. We’re getting to know our new son, and what a wonderful time we’re having.

Still, it’s a lovely time in our lives and life will get back to some sort of normal one day. For now, we’re just enjoying every moment 🙂
