I’ve was commuting to work on my old / heavy city bike which works fine for me, but now that school has started back up, realizing I don’t have a good way to get kids to school without using the car!

For an 8-year old (my youngest – might look at options for older siblings also) who likes to ride bikes but can’t quite muster the hills or the distance (4 miles / 6.5 km), what are your favorite ways to get them to school?

I’ve looked at long-tail cargo bikes which are nice because he is right there and doesn’t have to do anything, but I’d like to have him be a bit active (and that’s purchasing a whole new bike – but I’m into it) or something like a ride along / bike trailer such as the Burley Piccoo ([https://burley.com/products/piccolo](https://burley.com/products/piccolo)). He does have a bike now that fits him well (20″), but it is really heavy and nothing special.

Thanks for your ideas!
