I don't think anyone really brought this up
but...I have 2 juniors and ride LDs quite often mostly for them. They are a
really nice distance for kids, especially kids that need the time and easiness
of LDs. One of mine has done some 50s with me, the other kid (I have twin girls)
just did 1 50 this season, the rest LDs. Some kids just pop into 50s and
higher with ease. Other kids have to grow up a bit, get their confidence up
& further their riding abilities to ride the longer distances. Its not so
easy for a kid to ride a 50. Its a LONG day.
