Such a good feeling seeing them wobble off without the need for you to run alongside them etc. Didn't bother with stabalisers just tried to break it down into bite size chunks.

Just need to become acomplishwd at stopping as currently she does a dismount.. this may benefit her once we move onto the trails tho!!

Pleased as punch 🙂

Today I introduced Boy 2 to spds. Returning to the carpark I met an old friend who's daughter was determined to learn to ride today. We were chatting away and then there was a big thumpy crunchy ouchy noise as the lad hit the deck, feet still fully engaged in the pedals. Everyday is a schoolday, we are always learning.

Meg- well done girly, you did well 🙂

Had my boy out again on his balance bike today, had a few offs going to fast and not figured out the brake yet!

Nearly ready for pedals I think, hopefully will pick it up as easily as your little one.

Excellent. Both my girls, 4 & 6 yr olds, love riding their bikes with daddy, which gives me a nice warm feeling inside 🙂
