Organizing a family bike ride is a worthy cause.

It’s a great way to get everyone exercising and a fun way to have a social ride with the people that mean the most to you.

I’m in the process of organizing a big family bike ride using the online organizer, eVite. I’m hoping that with sufficient notice, most folks will make time for the event. I think I’ll pack some bottled water for everyone and some snacks.

This weekend we had a “mini” family bike ride consisting of my Dad, my brother Jason (visiting from Dallas) and my nephew Tanner. We had a blast exploring Hollywood Park’s rolling hills.

Hopefully, in the next two to three weeks, we’ll get a big family ride going with uncles, nephews, cousins and more.
