Biking 101

Step 1: Protection. Whatever you've got will work. Even if it's a pot with duct tape. Secure the noggin. You'll want to keep it.


Step 2: Wear the most atrocious outfit combo you can find.


Step 3: Hold the seat and handles. Just like your driver's ed teacher did to the stearing wheel in high school. Now we know why.

Step 4: Children tend to gravitate towards objects of harm. Stay close!

Step 5: Let daddy take over once you realize your outfit is unfit for pictures.

Step 6: See step four!

Step 7: When driveway is too cluttered with JUNK, move to larger unobscured location (church parking lot).

*"Eli, You are doing SO GOOD!"

"I know"

When confidence has improved, introduce trick riding.

And just for fun, let's throw in some hecklers as well.

Step 8: when unsure of your newly aquired "skillz", try tongue thingy.

It works!

Step 8: Get a good riding distance to perform your stunts.

Step 9: Forget what you were doing by the time you reach the end.

Happy Riding!

*Due to an outside observation of my own selfishness, I have revised this course to two very simple steps....

Step 1: When a properly attired adult let's go of your seat, Ride like a bat out of hell!
Step 2: Make your momma proud!!!


P.S. no scrapes, cuts, or bruises were aquired with the making of this post.
