Last year, we took off Connor's training wheels and he rode his bike along North Summit Avenue with some assistance from Mike. Little did we know that it would take a year to get him to try out his bike again. His razor has been his favorite mode of transportation especially on our street which is very steep. A couple weeks ago, a friend and I loaded up the kids and the bikes and Connor's razor and went to the church parking lot to let the kids ride around. I told Mike about it and the following Saturday, he took the boys again but this time instead of the razor, he took Connor's bike. I got a call from Connor a short while later saying that he rode his bike all by himself. So we decided to go again to the church parking lot as a family and ride bikes. Connor was anxious to show me what he could do. He was so proud of himself. It was great!

I'm convinced that the church parking lot is the best place to teach kids how to ride their bike. There are no obstructions and there is plenty of turning space.
It looks like it has been raining there. Probably a bit more pleasant than the snow we are getting. However, I'll take every flake because we need the water.
Your son learned how to ride his bike and my son got his drivers license this week. They grow up so fast ;).
Congrats to Connor! I bet he was so proud of himself!
Always such a fun accomplishment! Congrats, Connor!
