Ashton and Dad had a big day this summer when Ashton decided he was old enough to ride a bike without training wheels. :) Here’s his last ride with them on:
Then he and dad went to work:
And then it was time to ride:
It was VERY rocky at first! That bicycle has the smallest tires and he would pedal fast and then get worried he was going to fall. ;) He would sometimes do better on his brother’s bike. Even though it was taller and harder for him to start on, he could relax and go a little slower…
Now Ashton ROCKS at it, even though he has had some excellent crashes, he has made it look mostly easy. In a month, his confidence is great and he’s able to ride around the block with his brother. My boys are always impressing me with their bravery! ;)
Gabe insists on riding with one hand and doing other things to make bike-riding even more challenging. He loves ramping off the broken sidewalk in our neighbor’s yard and one day I came home for lunch and he had built his own ramp with boards he collected from dad’s shop. Cray boy! ;)
Make that ‘boys.’ CrAzY Boys! …. I love ‘em! :)
