My husband and I want to find an active hobby to enjoy with small children. We want to start biking, pulling the kids behind us. Any suggestions on good brands or advice to get started? We were thinking of starting off with some Garage sale or Craigslist bikes. What type of bike do we need for the jogging trails? Thanks for all your help!

What can I do next?

I just purchased a Diamondback Hybrid (a mix between a street bike and a mountainbike) for $250 at Dicks Sporting Goods, but I have also heard that Bicycles Inc. is good because they do free "tune ups" and such. As for the trailer, I have a friend that just bought one at Walmart and it has no shocks so her daughter absolutely hates it! I guess you get what you pay for and there are some that are about $100 more (maybe by schwinn) that will probably do the trick.

Hi,
I recommend visiting Richardson Bicycle Shop in Richardson. We have been buying bicycles there for many years. They are helpful and have great bicycles!

I would recommend going to Bicyle Inc. They are located in Bedford and Keller. They will actually be able to fit you to a bike and make some recommendations. We both two bikes and a trailer to pull my daughter. Found them really helpful and would recommend it to anyone.
