I'd love to hear from other people who have done it, and particularly anyone who has done it with kids.
DP, DS (aged 10) and I are planning on doing it in May half term, so in six week's time, over four days.
We have been training for about two weeks now, but how much training should we really be doing? DP will breeze it, I think I will just about manage but I am worried about DS, would one long weekend ride a week for the next six weeks be enough? He cycles every day to school but that is only a mile so doesn't count, should I be getting him out for evening rides during the week too? I'm thinking I can probably get him to do two 30-40 mile rides during the weekends.
I just want him fit enough to enjoy it and for the experience to be fun, rather than gruelling, so would really appreciate anyone else's stories or advice!
