I definitley miss it.

You'll get another bike someday - I know my dad stopped riding when he had kids - he kept his old bike and rode a few times a summer, but when I turned 16 I got my first bike and he caught the addiction again - now he rides all the time - he is getting back from Laconia tonight.
But family first, and you stopped riding for good reasons - but someday you'll be back!
