11 and 9 the 2 that are out. Just on local estate roads. I went and go out with them and got them the highway code. They've both done bikeability.... (edited)
That response makes sense. You and I differ in that I'd have had my littluns in a more secondary position even on residential streets, but I am not necessarily right on this. I just disagree.
I was imagining children riding primary as a default on the hilly, twisty NSL single-carriageway A-Roads where my children did a lot of their learning.
Even though I disagree about the tendency towards primary as default, I'm deeply pleased that kids are being taken out and taught to ride on the road by their parents. I see very few children out riding on the roads, which is odd in these 'cycling boom' days.
I believe your love of primary as a default may soften when your kids start to hit the fast, twisty stuff where artics bomb past and cars pass them while being overtaken.
But I take my hat off to you for teaching them to ride and I only disagree a tiny bit with default primary when it's on a housing estate.
