Kids Cycling Holidays

Anybody been on a cycling holiday to Holland? Am thinking of trying a biking holiday and Holland has been suggested, probably because it's flat!

I have kids aged 8 and 6 who are used to cycling but probably 20 miles / days is the limit!!

Anyone tried to do this with kids this age?

Thanks .....

One of our dads was dragged up Alpe d'Huez by his kids - aged 8 and 10

So I reckon that 20mpd in Holland would be fine - just make sure you've plenty of breaks and things to do in them if they're not yet dyed-in-the-wool riders.

Thanks for the reassurance Mike! Alpe d'Huez at 8 and10 is pretty impressive - don't think my 2 are quite there yet!
They're more used to cycling as a way to get about town and probably see it more as a way to travel rather than good fun in its own right.
We'd like to show them something a little different and a cycling holiday in a place which supports cycling, such as Holland is quite appealing.
