Hi Noob,
Glad to have you along. I can’t give
you total answers on the 7 year old yet, until I get the 2 day set. The 2-day
could very possibly be up to 40 miles with some options. Answers to follow soon
on the route. . . . .
Hope to see you.

Noob looking for advice
Ok, I need a little insight from the veterans.
I have never done the ride before.
My wife and I want to take the kids on the two-day. I know that our 9
year old could complete the 20-30 miles for each day. My issue is our
7 year old. His bike is just a 18", single gear. I don't think it is
fair to try to make him ride that distance on that bike. He isn't big
enough to ride a multi-gear bike yet.
Is there an option to have him start 1/2 way or something like that?
Any suggestions? Should I just wait a year or two?
If he were little, I would just put him in the bike trailer and pull
him along.
Open to anything....
