Here's an interesting thing I learned reading this forum.
TV commercials show happy adults on bikes all the time! Start watching and you will see for yourself. The bicycle is often used as a symbol of vigorous, joyous, carefree, relaxed living. Advertising is all about subconscious messages. Maybe from time to time you can simply point out an adult riding a bike in an advertisement. And when the kids are ready, also explain why the advertiser has chosen bike riding to symbolize the best things life has to offer.
