Parents paid ten bucks if I could ride the length of one block without training wheels. I learned before two of my older siblings, and shamed them into learning themselves.

We’ll be sending our 14yo daughter over to you in the summer, unless you think she’s too young to start.

Cool news about the book! Woot!

My son didn’t learn how to ride a two-wheeler until he was 10 years old, and that’s because my father taught him. I didn’t have the patience for it!

Lucky for us, our elementary school has the World’s Awesomest PE Coach, and every spring, he holds a “two-wheeler camp” for the kindergarteners. His trick: use a bike wrench to remove the whole pedal assembly off the bikes, basically turning them into scoot bikes, and making them scoot up a gentle grade, turn, and glide back down. Once they’ve mastered the turn without help, they’ve “earned back” their pedals… and they’re riding!

Mike was aghast… he’d spent a month chasing her around a park and failing, and this guy had taught TWENTY kids to ride two-wheelers in an HOUR.

My mom said she would teach me that weekend maybe. Aka, maybe by the end of summer. And that bitch Katie McIntyre had just learned. I couldn’t let her beat me. So I took a wrench, took off my training wheels and figured it out. Moma did bandage my scraped knees for me.

How’s the book?

Let the husband do it. It was equally as effective as my Let-the-nanny-potty-train-the-kids technique. I highly recommend them both
