My wife is awesome. I'll usually do a quick 5 or 6 miler after my dinner digests on my road bike, then come back and get her and the kids to all four do a slow cruise around on the hybrid pulling our 3 year old in the trailer, and our 6 year old riding on her single speed. I get in 8-10 miles most weekdays that way.
On the weekends, I get up early and knock out some nice, longer rides and get home by the time the kids are getting up and rolling.
