I am considering buying a new cycle, having last regularly cycled more than 45 years ago, and was looking for sensible advice. I think this site provides it; I was unclear about ratios with derailleur gearing but now it is quite clear. Much of the other information is really common-sense (if there is such a thing!).
I really liked the advice for teaching children to balance (especially interesting as I have a 3+ year-old grandchild who is starting to ride).
My ONLY 'beef' is with some spelling and grammar; I am known as a stickler for correct spelling and matters grammatical,but hey!

Please feel free to email me withany grammatical or spelling corrections that you feel need to be made. I am always willing to correct innaccuracies, either in technical detail OR in speeling/grammar... none of us is perfect!

I have another con for the "towbar" attachments.

- It allows the child to use the brake. For the same reasons on a tandem it's not safe, if the child suddenly decides to brake whilst on a corner... and you aren't expecting it... it's not going to end well.

Hi, to whom should I address any communication regarding glaring errors and recycled myths in the 'advice' on this site?

This manages to be a really informative site that doesn't patronise, thanks to whomever is responsible for content and upkeep. Easily navigable, too.
