Learning to Ride a Bike by Leanne

One of our longtime goals has been to teach Maddie how to ride a bike. We've tried here and there but usually it's too hot, we don't have enough space, it's too hard or whatever...

But this summer on one of those lovely cool, breezy nights, we packed up the two kid's bikes and headed to the local park for a little practice. What was amazing was that it actually didn't take Maddie very long at all to learn (although even forty minutes when you're the parent running along side of her can seem like a painfully long time!) :-) In the end, Daddy had the magic touch and soon, Maddie was off on her own! It was an exciting evening.

Shaky to begin with...




Innocent (or not so innocent?) bystander



AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH........



SHE DID IT!



The next rider...coming soon
