3 1/2 Mile Ride With a Hill Climb at the End
Kennedi got to take her 1st real ride on the WOOM 4 bike. We pedaled 3 1/2 miles and she climbed a pretty good hill towards the end. I coached her on the approach and she was able to get geared down & climb the hill without stopping.

So dad (grandad?), how long before you have trouble keeping up with her?

Poppie (grandad) is safe on the flats until she grows into an adult size bike as she doesn't have the gearing for more than about 10 MPH tops. On hills, I'm ready to take a break when she calls for one. I don't think it will be long before she can pass me on the steeper grades.
