Finally taught my son to ride a bike without training wheels!!!

1w ago·1 min read

We've been working on this for like 8 months. He kept getting frustrated and I didn't want to push too hard. Last Saturday we went to the park early and something just clicked. He rode about 20 feet on his own before he fell and I swear I've never been prouder of anything in my life. The look on his face when he realized he did it. We must've practiced for another two hours straight. Today he rode the whole way around the block. This kid is growing up too fast.

That's awesome man. We're in month 3 of the bike training with one of mine and he's still shaky. Gives me hope that patience actually works. Did you have any specific technique that clicked for him?

This is huge. Riding without training wheels is one of those milestones that actually means something. The fact that you didn't push and let him build his own confidence makes it even better. He's gonna crush it from here.

8 months of patience paying off. That's what I'm talking about. So many kids quit when it gets frustrating but you let him figure it out at his own pace. Now he's gonna remember this forever.
