my daughters are 7 and 4 and I been taking pics of them on my bikes since my 7yr ol was like 1

so if you dont mind me asking how old is your daughter that you let ride with you ?

I been curious about how old is considered safe to be on the back of the bike.

I'm also wondering if other folks will percieve me as irresponsible if I give my daughter a ride (obviously wearing safety gear/gloves/ helmets

A new law in Australia states they must be 9yrs min age to ride pillion.

UK law states they must be able to reach the rear pegs and be stable/safe

Know what you mean about other folks thoughts about being irrisponsible

I thought long & hard about the same issue...but medical probs at the time meant i'd either do it then or maybe never get the chance ever again. Obviously, I eventually opted to take my son for a ride out (which I'm really glad I did coz he loved it)

Ultimately, i'm still here to tell the tale....so alls good :cool

Ozzy: which state? I know they were considering 8yo in Vic but
nothing came of it.

Let's hope they never make it a mental appraisal, otherwise I'm f**cked.
