My 6yo just rode his bike without training wheels

Took him out this morning and after about 20 minutes of me holding the seat he just took off. I let go without telling him and he made it like 50 feet before he noticed I wasn't holding him anymore. The look on his face was priceless. Wife got it on video. Best morning I've had in months honestly.

This is one of those wins that feels bigger than it probably is but honestly it kind of is. Independence moment right there.

Dude that's awesome. My son still wants the training wheels off and I know the moment is coming soon. Did you have any close calls?

That moment when you let go and they actually do it. Nothing quite like it. My oldest just hit that milestone last summer and I was grinning the rest of the day.

20 minutes is solid progress. We spent way longer with ours before she got it. You picked a good day for it apparently.
