Porter has been riding his bike with training wheels now for some time. The more he rode it the more the wheels flared out til prety soon he hardly used them, only to stop with. Today one of them completeley came off. Unfixable. So Mason decided he would teach Porter how to ride his bike without training wheels. He got the tools out and finished taking them off. And then with a little assistance from mom he showed him how to take off and what to do when you stop. Before mason could finish his instructions Porter rode past us. We both looked at each other "he's doing it" we said at the same time. He did marvelous. except for the ocasional bush being leaned into because he forgot the legs down part he never did CRASH on the maiden voyage and for the rest of the evening. He is getting so big.
a week or less Mason was out jumping over some ramps that we have and Porter tried and suceeded. After a few times of this Mason came to get me to watch. Sure enough he did it. It scared me enough though that I banned him from doing it anymore until he got on a bigger bike. The little tire on that bike almost fit into the edge on the top of the ramp, which could have endo'd him.
