We decided it was time to take the training wheels (stabilisers) off Ben and Ethan’s bikes. We talked about it with them for a couple of weeks. We got out their old balance bikes from the garage, and they played on them for about 2-3 hours, over 3-4 days. It didn’t take long for them to learn a bit of balance on their balance bikes.
Last Monday, we went to Sal’s Mum’s house (Nanna) and took the boys bikes. Nanna lives 2 houses away from the local primary school oval. There is a turf covered cricket pitch that is flat, wide and surrounded by grass. It is where I (Sal) and my sister (Aunty Shell) learnt to ride bikes when we were kids. It seemed like the perfect place for the boys first attempt at riding.
They did so very well! I am so proud!!!
We spent less than an hour riding on Monday, but in the videos below, you can see how quickly they progressed and how well they did.
Below is a video about Ben.
And Ethan….
