Look Mom, no feet! (Or training wheels!)


It was just this February that Lexie learned to ride without training wheels, but Gavin was ready now and just learned to do it himself at age 4. Yea, Gavin! Danny went out almost all day on my birthday running alongside both Lexie and Gavin to give them enough practice and support until they could ride by themselves confidently. And wow! They are now successful bike riders, no problem! We go out almost every day now, there are plenty of places to ride through our forest community, and we always ride bikes down to the pool. I love the motion shot of Lexie here, it totally focuses on her and you see the blur of everything else going by.
Gavin picked up the bike riding so fast! Pretty much as soon as he had it down, he was doing tricks. He lifted his feet off the pedals as he coasted down hill. Fun stuff!

He loves it! He is a great little cyclist. Way to go, bud!

Wow! They are young bike riders. I can see Gavin becoming a bike rider all over as a man, too. What are the bars on the back of his bike? I guess they add stability? Talented kids!
