Took my nephew put for his first ever spin yesterday and he loved it. Only went 3 or 4 miles but i had his mothers blessing and it was all good.
It’s down to personal choice isn’t it, i don’t like the idea of wrapping kids in cotton wool and think they should experience all sorts of things.
People take their kids out in cars when there is a chance of an accident (although i realise the risk is far less)?
People wax lyrical on here about the joy of taking their kids for a first bicycle ride which will almost always result in their first crash at some time but that is deemed acceptable. A child could be killed or seriously injured when losing control on a bicycle and hitting a tree or even just the ground?
I think people take far more care when they have a child on the bike and wouldn’t take the risks they might if they were on their own.
