It's one thing to see people taking bike rides, but totally another when you see actual families going about their day on their bikes. I love it! These photos were taken of course outside the U.S. in Denmark and Amsterdam. But I'm excited to say that Long Beach, CA, the city I grew up in, is making efforts to become the most bicycle-friendly city in the nation with the release of their "sharrows" (existing shared lanes for both vehicles and bicycles) in the Shore last summer. Go Long Beach! And by the way, how cute is little dude in the bottom, right corner photo?Photos: The Public Blog

That's so cool!! I love Long Beach, it's such a great city :) It's nice to see that they're all making an effort to be so bike-friendly!! :)
That looks like so much fun!! :)
So cute! I'm scared to ride my bike in the city sometimes - so much traffic! But we do have a lovely lane by the lake which is perfect :)
We are getting to buy a bike for the 3 of us, Emma's little chair and helmet is the cutest thing ever. Love these photos.

Jake and I love taking our bikes for a ride! It's a fun thing to do here in Del Mar. We will have to rig some sort of contraption once we have little ones so that they can ride along too!
The kids in the wheelbarrow that's attached to the bike -- it's such a good idea. I think there definitely needs to be more family friendly bikes and bike lanes.
So wonderful! I just wish they wore helmets.
healthy, green and summery. it doesn't get any better :)
I love the way that everyone bikes in Amsterdam! Have you seen the YouTube videos of Amsterdam at rush hour? It's all bikes at a crazy speed! You should look for them. It's insane!
