Go Cycling With Your Family

A great way to get out of the house, enjoy your environment, get a little exercise and spend quality time with the family is to get on your bicycle and go for a ride!  You could have a pedal around your neighborhood, remembering why you have chosen such a lovely place to live.  To really experience a change of scenery, put the bikes in the back of the car and take them to another location.  Perhaps a ride along the beach is your perfect setting, or maybe through the forest is more your style.  Wherever you end up, the fun is unlimited!

Have a basket for your bike or a backpack.  Double the fun by packing a lunch, a footy, or a cricket bat.  When you find a suitable park or location, stop and have a bite to eat and exercise different muscles with your sport equipment.  Imagine discovering that perfect out of the way park on your ride...

Happy pedaling and tell us about great places you find.
