Yesterday, we set out to try to learn to ride a bike without training wheels (her, not me). We started out on the pavement, helmet included, long pants on, etc. Then I remembered what my grandfather did with me.
We moved to a grassy hill, got situated on the seat, and off she went.
We started with a few 5 – 10 foot rides, then she started getting the hang of peddling, and she was off.
We still have some things to practice… starting off without help, and stearing, so as not to splat into the fence.
I suppose I was the loudest person cheering in the common area yesterday.
