Yeah! Boy has finally managed to cycle on his own - totally, with no assist wheels.
Dad witnessed this milestone at Botanic Gardens one Sunday morning. Thanks to a friend who gave us the tip about putting him on slopes to try balancing first before pedaling and go ... So, it wasn't too hard on our backs for too long at all. He learnt it with great determination.
Since, he's been excited to conquer greater slopes and longer distances. Girl has alittle to catch up. She's cool on her balance bike, lifting her legs to balance and manuver only with hands - she enjoys it, and soon, I can just see it, that she'll be pedaling on a 2 wheel bike right next to her gor gor.
It's truly a wonderful feeling celebrating milestones with our children. And i'm actually quite glad that dad got to see it first, rejoicing with him at his achievements.
