Bike Riding



Stian is getting so good at riding his bike. The other night he biked over a half a mile. I never would have thought he would make it that far, but he was quite determined. One of his favorite activities is to go to the front of our road, sit in the grass and watch cars drive by on the slightly busier road, Pretty Prairie. Usually he rides in the bike trailer or the stroller. But the other night he road his trike all the way up there. This includes going up the long hill all by himself (except for the 20 feet or so of the steepest part, where Kris gave him a push). I can't imagine riding a trike that far, they are not nearly as easy to ride as a bike! He made it part of the way back, but it was getting late and he needed to get to bed, so we put him in the bike trailer for the rest of the ride home. He might have made it though if we had had more time. Incidentally, he was not happy about being put in the bike trailer. He wanted to ride back!
