    Hello,
    Just to clear afew things up here !!!!!!!!!!
    1- Yes as parents we decided to let our child do a100mile ride.
       With many discussions,Many training rides, and LOADS of Fun,
       hanging out with Grandpa and Dad.

       Cliffy is just fine,He has fun riding and even though he,s
       only 5.He can talk too! He knows if something hurts, and
       believe me WE would hear about it.


    2- Tom and Cliffy took thier time,they had access to everything including (doctors). This was a family "thing".We treated it with respect. and Tom,Cliffy and Grandpa have a wonderful memory for the rest of their lives!!!!

    3- We don't intend for Cliffy to actually Compete against adults
    or try to "win " the rides, He likes playing "lets beat Grandpa" who is riding with them,riding at their own pace doing
    something fun.


    P.S. you do realize he is being ponied?

    Tom and Cliff Lewis are very well educated,and have many years of
    experience,so please try to stop working yourselves into such
    a frenzy. I really don't think this is a fad,and everybody  is
    going to hurry out and put "small children" in the endurance
    world.
