Hey all,
I have a 9 year old daughter that LOVES to ride the Vision with me. I would like to take her on longer rides, but I am afraid of her falling asleep and falling off. I have heard of this happening.

What does anyone here do about this? What works well with the Vision and children?

Thanks,
The Geek

Check this link. I saw a friend of a friend using something like this for a 6 or 7 year old grandchild riding with them. They said it made them feel very secure.

Part of the reason for getting the Vision was get our kid onboard safely.

We have 3 items that help keep her on.

Trunk
Arm rests
Driver backrest - (haven't purchased yet)

She is still young (5) so many of our rides are very short and kept in the neighborhood.

My seven year old daughter is about 6" short of the passenger floorboards so I don't have to worry about her dozing off. Her legs start hurting around the 45min mark. Something to think about if your childs legs dangle also.

I installed the risers so she fits perfectly on the bike. Comfortable and everything. thats why I am afraid of her falling asleep.
