This has been a big year for Garrett!
He has been this close to riding a bike on his own for almost two years, but he'd get anxious about falling, or frustrated with his teachers (can't wait to teach that kid to drive), and just abandon his bicycle for his scooter when we were home.
But now ... look at this action. And this.
Garrett did his first solo ride on Wednesday afternoon in Puškinovo náměstí, just a block from our apartment. Tonight we brought a picnic dinner down to Stromovka and let the boys ride.
It's good to have a goal. Next week is Activities Week at school, and from what I can tell it's nothing but fun and games and water fights and field trips all week long. On Thursday Garrett's class is coming to Stromovka to ride bikes.
A little more practice on taking off and stopping, and Garrett will be good to go.
Sounds like an upcoming bicycle outing with his class was a good motivation to finally master two-wheeled transportation?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Garrett!
Welcome to the two-wheeling world, Garrett.

A joke from Sing and Celebrate yesterday: Q. Why did the bicycle fall down? A. Because it was two-tired. Da dum dum.
ReplyDeleteGreat Job G! We are excited to see you ride back in Oneonta. We miss you, Ben, mom & dad. xo Sasha, Isabelle, Andrea & John
