I've had a idea (I have one a month).
Why don't we take it in turns to host monthly rides for kids? Everyone turns up at your house, park their cars in your drive or street, use your loo, drink your drinks, eat your snacks and then you lead everyone round a suitable route in your area. Perhaps take in the local park and pub
plus any other points of interest. Maybe you regale the grateful throng with interesting anecdotes about the sights you pass.
All would be welcome. Kids in trailers and on tag-a-longs, the backs of tandems or on their own machines. If there were riders of differing abilities perhaps devise two routes that met at the same midway point. Of course those that couldn't beg, borrow or steal a kid would be welcome as well.
I imagine we might end up with rides in different parts of the country (or even the world) so hopefully there would be a ride within easy travelling distance of everyone.
The idea might develop: camping weekends, Christmas rides (calling Wowbagger) etc.
What do we think? We are more than happy to organise an mid-Essex ride in September if there is a bit of interest.
