I dont need to climb to much in Illinois, I couldn't even imagine trying to climb a mountain, our biggest hills are highway overpasses.
How young? I've got my 10 year old daughter doing metrics with mom. If I get the whole family on the road, I find I can ride more.....

There's not much flat land around my neck o' the woods. And when you do find it, it is likely to be windswept.....
