Turns out that while I don't need the breaks physically I am enjoying them and the rides are much easier (partly because we are also riding slower than my typical pace). I am going to try adding them to my longer rides and hopefully those rides will be able to get even longer. So... I am interested in how you all take breaks while riding.
If I had a 13 year old daughter that wanted to ride with me and talk to me I would be willing to stop/go slow as much as she wanted to,the time you spend bonding is more vaulable than gold...those are the rides you will remember when your old and gray
