Use accessories to make it more practical

This tip corresponds to tip #7. When you make cycling part of your daily routine, get accessories to make it easier. If one of your children is too small to ride by themselves, get a covered pull-a-long to attach to your own bike. They get a ride; your legs get extra strength from the added weight. Using your bicycle to go to the store? Consider attaching a basket to the front or back. Going for a long, outdoor ride regularly? Fasten a bottle holder between your knees so you have easy access to water.
