[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids didn't learn till they were 8. Things that helped: 1. This class: https://www.nps.gov/gwmp/planyourvisit/learntoride.htm. There were kids of all ages so they weren't embarrassed. 2. A place to ride where the kids feel safe. Friends live on a cul-de-sac that we borrowed to practice. Kids weren't intimated by cars, other bicyclists, people watching, etc. 3. The biggest? Peer pressure. Their BFF learned to ride and there was no way in hell they were letting her ride without them. #1 and #2 helped to get the basics, but #3 was the clincher.[/quote] I came here to post about the "learn to ride" with a ranger program. Although my son didn't learn how to ride that day-- every other kid in the group did! And, a few months later, I used their technique and he learned in an hour. Seriously!!! He was a young 6.
