Jared rides his bike without training wheels! After just one minute of instruction he was off to the races. I could not believe it! I was grabbing the back of the seat as he started to ride and after 3 rotations of the pedals he was pulling away from me and has not stopped yet. I have never seen a kid get the two wheeler down so quick. He and I have done several long rides already with some pretty good uphill riding involved. He is a real natural.
