Weekly Photo Challenge: Achievement (II)
19Saturday 15 November, 2014 by Uncle Spike
This week’s second entry from me for the Weekly Photo Challenge was taken this morning, and is of our son, a six year old nerd known as Cousin Spike Jnr, having just completed riding his bike for about 20 metres on his own. Ok, so every kid goes through that stage, but today, it was certainly his proud achievement!
Hope you enjoy this entry.

My son never could get the hang of riding a bicycle. Then, when he was at University and had a bar job that involved having to get home in the early hours, he bought a bicycle which he taught himself to ride in the supermarket car park at night, when there weren’t any cars around!

That takes guts, teaching yourself at that age, kudos to young Mr Potter.

Just been through this frustrating process with my granddaughter. I just wanted to say ‘come on, come on, it is so easy’ and just when you think it is all hopeless off they go! Wonderful!

The first step to independence! The next time that matches this excitement is driving a car all by yourself!

He drives far better than he cycles. He sits on my lap in the old car and steers for 1.5 km most nights (involving quite a few turns), knows all the gears, signals, horn and mirrors – I just do the feet bit. Taught him from 2 years old 🙂
