Audax rides

Haha, going to be one of those parents who gets very irked of anyone else even entertains the idea of getting them a bike I reckon

I'm like that, but in my capacity as uncle rather than parent. My brother had the temerity to buy his daughter some awful BSO PoS from Halfords. She hated it, refused to ride it, and I can't say I blame her. She's now on an Islabike with a custom personalised candy/metal flake paint job, and she loves it. Rides it all the time.
