This story reminds of of something I saw not too long ago on one of my rides. Was going up Presidio, and just past Cosoy, I caught up to a father and son pair, going up that portion. The son was really into it, off the saddle, on a hybrid. As I passed, I gave him the thumbs up, "good job! Keep it up!" Hopefully, you encouraged the "carp" out of him. This will keep him going on future rides, and longer distances.
