Does anyone out there have any advice for riding fairly slowly(around 8-10mph is ideal).

My younger cousins love to ride with me, but are very slow. They don't talk much when we are riding since they are concentrating on pushing themselves.

However, with no conversation to distract me, my brain goes into autopilot mode and I automatically push the pace up to my regular speed(around 22/23mph) which is much to fast for them at the moment.

Any tips for going slowly? I need something to occupy my mind or else I kind of stare off into space and do my own thing.
