Same. Bike never had a QR either so it’s easy.
Also, most kids bikes until recently were designed with cranks that were too long and the high BB is a result of that. It’s been really nice that we’re living in a renaissance of well thought out kids bikes now.

I went for a ride Sunday and Monday. 55ish miles each way. A few little side quests too and didn’t get rained on too bad. Good times.

First non-solo big ride around here and of course I bonk at 30 miles. Great day though, lots of gnarly stuff and quite hot.

We went to a “Kidical Mass” ride. Roli did 12 miles in the Bullitt and rode around on his bike and ran around a bunch. He slept well.

I took the Clydesdale Bridgestone out on a trail ride with a basket full of ice and lacroix. The new 10sp cassette worked great and it was great fun descending. Uphill I washed out the front a couple times overcorrecting bad/distracted steering inputs but it recovered easily. Then I flatted the front on the way back to the trailhead, guess I need more PSI for this kind of stuff 
(But the plan is to go tubeless cushcore in the front 
)

Rode from Seattle to Portland over 2 days. 206 miles. I quit at mile 162, got a ride for 14 miles, then got FOMO and pedaled the rest of the way. Never again. So dumb. But I got to do it on my fancy road bike, which I hardly ever get to ride anymore.
Route was awful - basically mirrored I-5 most of the way. We did get to detour through the military base, which was kind of cool.

Nice! I’m trying to talk myself into flying to mother country in a few weeks and once I brave looking at what that might cost, gonna see if I can do a layover.
