This is 100% irresponsible. Never ride with a child like this. Instead, see comments for the right way to ride with children.

93 and planning to ride Unbound 100. 🙌👏👏👍👍👊👊

After completing the Unbound 100 three times, Fred Schmid, 93, has returned to Emporia again and again chasing the Unbound 200 finish line, enduring sickness, exhaustion and unfinished miles along the way.

One attempt ended after 110 miles when, as Fred put it, he was "puking and crapping and just feeling like hell." Another attempt ended at 120 miles because he missed the time cutoff. Last year, the adventure stopped at the first checkpoint after Fred decided that the prospect of another 130 miles, half of it in the dark, was simply "not intriguing."

When asked why he’s come back at all, Fred jokes: "Because I’m a du***ss."

But one doesn’t rack up 54 national championship titles and two world titles by being dumb. That kind of longevity comes from loving the sport and being unable to resist the draw of a distant finish line. Maybe all those things can be true at once, but not this year.

This year, Fred is showing a remarkable amount of wisdom and restraint by 'downsizing' to the 100-mile event. What’s more, Fred revealed that this may be his very last Unbound, of any length.
