I've heard of this woman and her school before, but this is a little more detail than I've seen in the past. I think the ages mentioned are pretty compatible with what I was saying about changes in parenting standards (heavy focus on safety, willingness to chauffeur) and changes in intimidating changes in bike technology (derailleurs for all) in the 1980s and 1990s really hammered on who learned to ride a bike.
