I have always had support from my family with regards to cycling. They arent too happy with me spending money on my bikes all the time and tell me to 'take care' whenever I go out for a ride, but they actively support me cycling.
My dad is always interested to know what I have bought lately and where I have been cycling.
My mum always says that the cyclists she sees on the way home from work always remind her of me (and she thinks that they are me!).
Mother is an excellent driver around cyclists (and in general). She always gives them room and is a very safe driver (from my perspective). However, she does have a tendency to get a little aggravated when other drivers act like twunts (she always comes home with a story about a near miss). I am thinking of setting up a camera in her car just to see exactly when happens.
Dad is a bit of a bad driver. Not only does he come a bit too close to cyclists, but he often overtakes even though he has nowhere to go (MGIF syndrome). He has picked up a few bad habits in his time.
If I ever want to take part in a race, they always find the time to take me and show support.
Does anyone else have very supportive families when it comes to cycling?
