You both look like you have streamers hanging from your helmets???
We had streamers because we were doing the Cinderella classic - an all women's metric century. That was 2003, I believe. She was 7.

She did have toeclips then. now she has clipless MTB shoes/SPD pedals. Her feet have to be attached to the bike otherwise, she rinks the risk of the foot slipping and leg getting whacked by the pedal. as she is not in control of where it goes.

Thanks for the nice comments everyone! I'm looking forward to our adventure next weekend. Even if we do the short route, it should be fun. I suspect the ride is fairly hilly. And my sister's longest ride is 30 miles so far so 30 - 45 miles should be plenty.
