Freewheelin’

September 19th, 2009 by ninja

Less than 3 weeks ago, we took the training wheels off of Mika’s bike, along with the pedals to create her very own runbike. It didn’t take her long to find the center of gravity and today we gave it a shot and tested the bike with pedals back on. No training wheels.

Mika put her newfound balance together with the old pedaling skills and … just took off! So proud of her!! She actually managed to get a good handle on breaking after this movie was taken, but we’ll have to practice some more before she can ride well on the sidewalks. So far, she can circle the schoolyard for minutes, but she still needs a little extra room to maneuver safely.
