The most important part of planning a family ride is not choosing the route. It is choosing equipment that fits each child.
A bicycle that is too large can make an otherwise easy Seabrook ride uncomfortable.
16 Inch Kids Bike
The SurfScooter 16-inch kids bike is generally suited to riders around 3’5″–4’2″.
A training-wheel version is also available for riders who are still building confidence.
20 Inch Kids Bike
The 20-inch option generally works for riders around 4’0″–4’8″ who have some independent riding confidence.
24 Inch Bike
The 24-inch bike generally fits riders around 4’8″–5’4″ and may work for older kids, teens, and shorter adults.
What About a Trailer or Tagalong?
Not every child needs to ride independently.
Depending on rider fit and ability, a child trailer or Tagalong may make a family vacation ride easier.
Choose the Route After the Bike
Once everyone has appropriate equipment, start with a shorter route around your rental area before attempting a longer portion of the Seabrook Island Road loop.
