We've been working on this all summer and today he finally pedaled 50 feet without the training wheels. The look on his face was pure joy. He was so proud and I was probably even more proud. Got it on video too. This is what it's all about right here.
Congrats! That's a huge milestone. I'm still a newbie at this dad thing but I can already tell these moments are what it's all about. Makes all the scraped knees worth it.
That's awesome man! Those 50 feet are just the beginning. My son still remembers the day he got his balance and I swear that smile is burned in my memory forever.
Awesome! That's such a milestone. Did he take off running or was there still some wobbly moments?
Nothing beats that feeling when you let go and they actually keep pedaling. Congrats to your son.
All summer of patience pays off right there. Those little moments stick with them forever.
That first time they go without training wheels is everything. 50 feet today, down the driveway next week, the whole neighborhood by next summer. You're gonna blink and they'll be cruising.

Nothing beats that feeling right? My kid's been wanting to learn and we haven't gotten to it yet but posts like this get me motivated to make it happen soon.
