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:
