Saturday afternoon at Two Rivers School. The next-to-last Bicycle Project meeting.

Sarah and Emma (age 6) arrived at the first meeting using training wheels which they soon gave up. They are now among the top riders in the group. We did our first street ride, about 3.5 miles.

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.
