Freedom from Training Wheels

An early morning training by Dan Allison. A special thank you to Cathy and Terri from Arlete’s BIG who came to the training and volunteered for the event that followed.

About 10 kids, from 2-6 years old, came to try out Jibe’s strider and pedal bikes. Two brothers practiced for almost two hours and learned how to ride without training wheels. A helmet sale and Bike Doc was also there:

Concrete project

While I was at Freedom from Training Wheels, Justin and a couple of friends from work completed 2 concrete projects from the alley behind my house.

One for my neighbors Gerald and Viki.

And a walkway to the patio gate for me.
