On A Roll…

January 2nd, 2012 by ninja

Tobin is ready to move on from his runbike, so we are trading it for a used 12″ Specialized “Hotrock” model, similar to Mika’s 4th Birthday present. First, he will need to get used to pedaling and breaking with his feet … then we can remove the training wheels for good. He has a good sense of balance, thanks to the runbike, and was able to ride a bit without training wheels already.

First two clips are short hands-free moments.
Later, he wanted the training wheels back on and has been riding with them since. We will probably go back and forth for a while, depending on how much practice he can get over Winter.

    I love Mika’s bike, and Tobin’s bunny on his blue(or is it his favorite color turquoise?) bike. So cute!

    Brings up memories of Prospect Park … although she was already 5 1/2 by then. Don’t they look adorable on those little bikes? http://minitosu.com/?p=3093
