Would you please go to Top 25 Family Travel Blogs and click like for Family on Bikes? You don't have to register or anything - it'll just take a few moments.

Thanks so much! (And if you don't mind passing the word on, I'd really appreciate it!)

Done!

Surprised? Your family is kind of um... famous, ya know

Every time I hear that I kind of scratch my head and wonder who you're talking about. Not me. Couldn't be!
