Make It a Family Affair
Biking is one of the few activities that everyone in the family can enjoy together, regardless of age or experience. From toddlers on training wheels to teens craving more speed and independence, Kent Bicycles offers a wide selection of sizes and styles to match every rider’s needs. Starting with properly sized bikes helps build confidence in young riders while ensuring a smoother, more enjoyable experience for everyone. Parents can lead the way on hybrid or cruiser bikes, while little ones follow along on kid-friendly models designed for safety and stability. Don’t forget to include older siblings with 24" or 26" bikes to keep them engaged and active all summer long. With the right bikes in tow, every ride becomes an opportunity for shared adventure and family bonding.
Plan Easy and Exciting Routes

Not every ride needs to be a long-distance trek; sometimes the best memories are made right in your own neighborhood. Look for family-friendly routes that offer flat terrain, minimal traffic, and a few fun stops along the way. Community parks, boardwalks, greenways, and bike trails make ideal destinations for riders of all ages. To keep things interesting, try adding themed rides into your routine: an “ice cream ride” to the local shop, a “scavenger hunt ride” with fun items to spot along the path, or a “picnic pedal” where you pack lunch and stop in the shade. These little additions help turn an ordinary bike ride into a mini-adventure the whole family will look forward to.
Stay Safe and Comfortable

Before heading out, take a few minutes to make sure every bike is road-ready. Check tire pressure, brakes, and chains to ensure a safe ride. Encourage kids to get involved in the process; it’s a great way to teach responsibility and bike care at a young age. Safety gear is just as important as the bikes themselves. Kent Bicycles offers a wide range of helmets that combine safety, comfort, and fun designs kids will actually want to wear. Lightweight clothing, sun protection, and reusable water bottles are also must-haves for those hot summer days. A comfortable ride is a happy ride, so incorporating safety and comfort into your pre-ride routine sets everyone up for success.
