Cycling with children
Many children love their bikes, but they can easily be put off by an uncomfortable experience.
- Plan your route to have plenty of stops - for playgrounds and generally running around
- Carry some favourite snacks and offer them regularly, and make sure children drink plenty of liquid
- Make sure their bikes fit them properly with the tyres pumped up well and that their clothing is comfortable - not too hot or tight
- Don't forget hats and suncream in summer
- Have a ‘Plan B' for a quick way home in case you need to cut the trip short
