Well, most likely it just helps others in a family just to know that you may cycle regularily. That's all. I doubt my passion has been that infectious.

But I am moderately happy that at least an adult niece and nephew do cycle short distances about town on their own. About 10 years ago, I did lead them and their father for a 30 kms. bike ride. Their father bike commutes a short 5 kms. one way to work regularily ...on an old beatup 18 speed bike. Their mother (my sister) occasionally hauls out her bike.

Then there's a much younger set 2 nephews and 1 niece who have recently mastered their bikes without wheelies. They go about in neighbourhood and playground, supervised.

But i'll stop here..before I run through a few more other family members.

Got any in the family? Did happen before or after you rejuvenated your cycling passion?
