Family's Conversion to Biking Moving Along Slowly

Hey don't give up on me, folks. I'm not getting much writing done these days. Everything's all kooky because of the holidays. My priority is to spend as much time with my family as possible. An ample number of them are visiting those of us that live here in Portland. This doesn't happen that often. The dining room table is sticking out the ends of the dining room. I've been trying to convert them to bicycling, but so far they just think I'm out of my mind. Best I can probably hope for is that they've been drinking a new kind of wine called La Red Bicyclette. It may not sound like much, but I think it's progress.
