Pedal Power

We went to buy another bike today for our eldest. It’s the one on the right. It looks big, in fact as big as mine. But one of the workers in the shop recommended that size. But most important of all Fiz feels comfortable riding it. So there we are - we now got 6 bikes.

Our youngest actually didn’t know how to cycle. There I was in the morning teaching him how to paddle, balance and so on.

Incredibly after an hour he was paddling along the street like an expert. So much so that later in the afternoon I brought all the kids for a long cycle ride around the neighbourhood. Our front neighbour who is a very friendly Dutch was quite enthusiastic to see us on our bikes and especially to see our youngest learning to cycle today that he gave him a skateboard!
