DIY Runbike

August 31st, 2009 by ninja

Mika has been pedaling away on her bike since her 4th birthday, but a quick test to remove her training wheels showed that balance has to be learned all over again with a bicycle. All the kids in our neighborhood who had runbikes instead of scooters apparently made the switch to real bicycle without training wheels. So what’s a smart girl to do?

We removed the pedals (as well as training wheels) from Mika’s bike, lowered her seat all the way,  and turned it into her very own, pink (!) runbike. See for yourself how much fun she had during Tobin’s nap – and how well she can already hold her balance! Of course, we’ll need a few more days of practice before the pedals can go back on…
