Boys and Bikes

Timothy has recently been taking over Ben’s little bike, and Ben had clearly outgrown it. So we got a bigger one for Ben, and now they officially have one each. When the new bike arrived, we just didn’t put the training wheels on it. Eric spent a good few hours on Sunday chasing Ben up and down the driveway, but it only took a short time before it was more moral support than anything else.

He still needs some help starting, and hasn’t quite figured out how to turn at the end of the drive or how to stop effectively, but he’s been having a great time! And Timothy is loving having his own bike too — no more taking turns!

    Your boys are always adorable and I’m so impressed with their bike riding skills! Hope to see you all soon =).

    The movie is GREAT!! Both boys are doing spectacularly on their bikes. I am so impressed. I have taught pedaling for way to long to to be totally awestruck that Tim pedals before he is three; and Ben is no slouch balancing on a two wheeler.

    Love, Grandma

    Great to see the boys having so much fun! Eric is getting a great workout, too, but I know Ben will very soon be able to manage without a chase-person.

    Now I know our kiddos are getting very grown up when I see Ben already riding a two-wheeler! That’s awesome! Such handsome boys, Rose!
