Who taught you how to ride....

[fireman32]

Can’t remember who taught me, but I remember teaching my boys. They liked to pull each other around with the four wheeler to.

Happened so long ago that I can't remember.

That's what weird though - my first day of Kindergarten was a long time ago but I still remember it. Yet I can't remember learning to ride a bike.
Maybe my dad and/or mom were so mean when teaching me that it traumatized me and it's a repressed memory or something!
I remember the first book I ever read completely on my own at home (versus the "Tom, Dick & Jane" books at school) a short Rocky & Bullwinkle book (maybe one of those Golden Books). I had an Atom Ant book after that at some point too.

It could blunt force trauma from :learning".

You never know! I'm not very coordinated so I can't imagine learning to ride a bike would be very easy for me.

We had a guy in the neighborhood whose Dad fixed his bike up like this one. It was cool.

We called them high bikes!

If you take the pedals off, it will take a kid less than a day to learn how to balance and training wheels will never come into play.

You would have to be "high" to dream up such a design!

I had a buddy who had one. He could wheelie that thing for a mile. What was really funny was the fact that he was 6’5” and always shaved his head. What a sight!
