Skipped the Training Wheels!

My oldest just turned 4. He has been on a strider the last couple summers and has been really good at it. For his birthday his grandparents got him a 16” Guardian bike. I had him use it for a few weeks without pedals so that he could figure out the balance of the new bike. The past couple weeks we’ve been giving pedals a try for a few minutes at a time, and he was really struggling with the foot motion. Finally yesterday it clicked and he was off. Today we went on a 4 mile bike ride. Starting and stopping on his own too! I’ve never been more proud of this kid.
