Ridecamp: Re: [RC] [RC] LD Ride or Race what ever you want

Hmmm...finally a resonable suggestion regarding LD....I would heartily
support this...no way a 4 year old is ready to "race" 25 miles...they
are not fully mature until 6. I would even go for raising the Endurance
age from 5 to 6.

Jim, Sun of Dimanche (who didn't start a ride until he was 6) and Mahada
Magic (who probably won't start one until he's 7)
