• I went round the block/s a few times with Tynan (my 6-year-old). His first occasion spending more time on the road, stuff like the Beech St tunnel, and one way streets around EC1/EC2.

    He did extremely well. Showed great composure and a very responsible attitude considering how fucking mental he is.

    I went out for a bike ride with my four-year-old nephew today. He's technically been able to ride a bike since last summer (balance bike before that), but as he actually learned on a bike hired from a playground, as it's normally adults walking alongside him so he has to wait, and as there have been various reasons for lack of riding opportunities, it was his first proper outing. Only about 2.5km all in, with a stop at the adventure playground (equivalent to a cafe stop for a four-year-old), but It was fun.
