I agree with Robert and Sumi, and will add...
Bands come and go, but the time you spent with your kid (especially those fast growing early years) and family is priceless, and once missed, can never be gotten back.

// I quit bike racing and even riding for the first 5 years of my son's life, and didn't really miss it. When I later returned, it was great to get back into it, but more as a side hobby and not a way of life, if ya know what I mean.
