Hello from Colorado! ✨🏔🚐 #vanlife #famil Hello from Colorado! ✨🏔🚐 #vanlife #familyadventures #egretthevan #jumpforjoy #summervibes #frisco #colorado
If you’re taking any road trips this summer, che If you’re taking any road trips this summer, check out my must-have gear recs in the special family section of @travelandleisure’s June issue, which is, as always, chock-full of transportive stories. (I’m dreaming of return trips to Ibiza and Marseille and planning a summer detour to Starved Rock State Park outside Chicago!) Thank you @jacquigiff @pbbrady1 for the assignment, and for allowing me the space to spotlight some of my top sustainability tips and favorite eco-conscious brands. Now I’m off to pack up the van for our next trip and make some hard decisions about which bikes to bring! 😅🚐🚲✨#roadtrippin #familytravel #tandlpicks #summer #vanlife #leaveitbetterthanyoufoundit

After a magical stay at @mohonkmountainhouse, we g After a magical stay at @mohonkmountainhouse, we gave our kids extra hugs this morning as we dropped them back at school. I’m so moved by everyone who has contributed to our bikepacking charity ride for @yellowfund (currently at $300!), but also have to mention @everytown, where our family made a separate donation today. Donate there if you can and please call your congressperson to let them know you support common-sense gun laws: 202-224-3121. #endgunviolence #melttheguns #collectivepower #holdyourfamilyclose 🌸💔
We made it over the @walkwayoverthehudson, the wor We made it over the @walkwayoverthehudson, the world’s longest elevated pedestrian bridge, then the wind picked up and it began to pour so we called a taxi to take us the remaining 12 miles to our hotel in New Paltz. Not the plan we had in mind, but when Remy got off the bike and started dancing in the rain, we all joined in. 🤸‍♂️🌦🌈 #gowiththeflow #familyadventures #bikepacking #cycling #ridecannondale #hudsonvalley #ny

Whew! That was one of the hardest and most rewardi Whew! That was one of the hardest and most rewarding days I’ve ever had on the bike. I rode in the lowest pedal assist mode on my trusty @ridecannondale Topstone Carbon Neo e-bike to conserve my battery range due to the 100 pounds of gear + baby + trailer. 🤪 Yup, we made some rookie mistakes—leaving several hours late, not ordering an extra axle in time so @ecniv and I could alternate pulling the heavy load—but despite the long 7 hour, 50-mile, 90-degree day, it was a beautiful car-free ride along the Empire State Trail. The kids kept big grins on their wind-blown faces, rarely complaining except to ask to keep moving when mama needed a break. I’m grateful to those of you who have already so generously supported our little fundraiser for @yellowfund. You helped inspire us to keep going and we’ve already raised over $200! 🙌🥰😅✨🚴💛#bikepackingfamily #yellowfund #bikeforacause
Rolling out on our first family bikepacking trip! Rolling out on our first family bikepacking trip! We’re heading to the Hudson Valley and will be riding more than 130 miles over the next few days. For every mile pedaled, we’ll donate $1 to the @yellowfund, a reproductive justice nonprofit that funds abortions in Alabama and the Deep South. We’d love help doubling our donation, so if you’d like to join us in supporting this cause, please consider chipping in $5 or whatever you can. Venmo me at @ Lauren-Crossley-5 or donate on your own and let us know. Thanks and stay cool! 🥵 #bikepacking #familyadventure #yellowhammerfund #bikeforacause #ridecannondale
