The middle of last summer we bought a tag along bike. You attach it to the back of your bike and it becomes a tandem bike and works excellent for going on long bike rides with kids. We have been riding many nights as a family when Mike is home. This Memorial day Mike had to work so we finally pulled out Isaac's little bike. Lucas wanted a turn to ride too.
I took him to an empty parking lot because we live on a steep hill and the bike was going to fast for me to hold onto.
Within about 15 seconds I could Lucas had no problem balancing so I took the gamble and let go. Lucas just kept going full speed like a champ. He has never ridden a bike with training wheels and his only experience pedaling is on his tricycle. I was shocked that he just knew how to do it.

Great job! I'm impressed. He has always seemed fearless.
Wow- 4 years old and never been on a bike even with training wheels? Impressive! Good luck keeping him off the streets and hill by your house... What about Isaac's school parking lot for the summer?
Way to go Lucas! He is definitely your son.
You're the only mom I know that wears dresses while taking their kids to ride bikes. You're a hot mama! :)
He is so coordinated! I keep meaning to pull Mason's training wheels off but just never get around to it. You've inspired me to give him freedom!
