[quote=Anonymous]The bike classes can be really good. Our ES hosts a clinic each fall where they took the pedals off and started with the kids just walking while sitting on the bike and less than an hour later they were all pedaling around like pros. My 5 year old learned that way last fall, and it was amazing to watch. Kids ranged from 4 to 10, and by the end, there was only one little girl who wasn't really riding (and that was only because she was messing around and not following the instructions). I think REI has classes too. I taught my other son myself at around the same age, which was fine, but the bike clinic was a much faster and smoother process - and I'd imagine especially for a kid who was not particularly motivated to learn on their own.[/quote]
