Just last night my almost 6 year old asked me "mom, when can I get a bike as cool as yours?" So that got me thinking - when is a child ready for a decent road bike? I would love for her to ride with me - we have a great rails to trails system here. And where do you get a nice kids' bike - from the LBS? How small do they come? When is it safe for them to use toe cages? I know we have many years yet, but it just got me thinking...
