There's a big thread raging on our local Facebook page about this picture. The majority of people think the dad's crazy (oh, and some people think that all bikes should be banned, everywhere, all the time!)
It's a 50/60mph, single carriageway road: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place...2!3m1!1s0x4870dac7fa2c915f:0x87e4502fd095917d
Instinctively, I want to jump in and say, why shouldn't he do this? It's the drivers' responsibility to take care around all road users, and the girl is no more vulnerable than any other cyclist.
But there's no way I'd ever do this with my children until they're much older than this.
Thoughts?
