Now that we have a daughter and 2 granddaughters living with us, none of which have any income, prospects, skills or much of a work ethic (well cept the 1yr old...she could be a baby model ), I don't have time for organized rides, charity rides, racing or any of that stuff....but I do try to get in some nice rec/touring rides in on the weekend. I can usually sneak in about a 40 mile solo ride and a 30-50 mile rec/tourist ride with my wife on the weekends...otherwise commuting and some errands are about all the cycling we get. My wife works from home and gets off work an hour before me, so she rides up to my work and rides home with me when she can. The beauty of commuting is that your cycling becomes part of your day...you don't have to make time for it!

PSA: Kids, they always come back...and they bring reinforcements!
