I really wish I could share that with the family as riding has been a real blessing on many levels in my life but so far no luck.
sort of the opposite for me / my family
I basically stepped away from bike riding for around 20 years - other than some short off-road rides in the woods behind our house
however - my wife did get out on her bike with the kids - at times with her father also ... they hit some of the rail-trails and nearby park MUP ... most times while I was working on / around the house
later my oldest kid did some rides with friends - including a two day ride on a rail trail (part of the GAP) with a friend and his father
later my youngest kid would do some off road rides with friends - and some BMX riding including indoor faculty and a local park pump track
but I never did ride with them
