Let's Go Ride A Bike!

Beth likes to ride her bike & last year we often went to Fenton City Park as this provided a safe environment with a good smooth surface for Beth to ride on. However, Beth had really outgrown her old bike so it was time for her to get a new one & learn to ride without stabilizers.

Completely by chance we looked in a local shop only to find that they hardly had any bikes on display (no doubt due to the first warm weather of the year). We thought that there was no harm in asking if there were any other bikes in stock, but I wasn't hopeful as most stock is usually on display. It must have been our lucky day as they had a bike that Beth liked that was on clearance at $17.64! It needed a new tyre & inner tube, but as I used to fix my own bike when I was younger this didn't pose a problem & we couldn't miss out on this bargain! As if it couldn't get any better, as we went to pay the shop manager reduced it further to $10 - result!!

As soon as Beth's bike was ready, we took her over to her school so that she could ride in the playground area. It wasn't long before she managed to ride unnassisted - well done Beth! With a bit more practice there will be no stopping her!
