Good luck.

I got up an hour late today, forgot to set the alarm. Managed to speed up the am and get in only ~20 min later than usual (~40 min late in absolute terms...).

Successfully talked my 8 yr old through shifting down to climb a dirt hill we have to climb for a construction site that sprung into our route, and back up again to regain speed on the other side (which is also the home stretch of his part of the morning). He knows how to shift, just doesn't view it as an active process, he pretty much shifts once per ride tops.
