Just last night he learned to start off himself from stationery & cycling away happily.
Im hoping he will be joining me on the trails soon......
Well done that lad (and Dad!). 8)
My lad managed full on pedal power long before the art of braking.... Was a worry at times.
That's a steep hill for you to have got him started on.
'That's a steep hill for you to have got him started on'
That was nothing - I filmed him doing this nearly a year ago:
Well done Jamie! Now go and rip daddies legs off! 😆

No stopping him now....... 🙂
Excellent .
Wondering when to start my almost 3yo on a 12" pedal bike (her sister's). She can ride the balance bike well but I'm not sure she'll be able to figure out brakes 🙂
Excellent! :~)
Nice work op 😀
We're off to pick up our 3-1/2 yo's bike on Saturday, he's mastered the balance bike so we've gone straight for a 16" wheeler which fits with the seat slammed. It's also the brakes I worry about, I'm sure he'll work it out soon enough though.... 😀
molgrips / swavis - Jamie started riding his balance bike when he turned 2.
I introduced the pedal bike (minus the pedals) at the beginning of the year, so he was using it just like a balance bike.
I felt he needed to get used to the extra weight & the additional brake.
It definitely paid off because he then only had pedalling to learn, can't believe how quickly he picked it up.
Last night he bumped down a kerb outside the house while pedalling like it wasn't even there....... 🙂
