We bought David a bicycle today. We have had a tricycle for a couple of years now and David has never really shown interest in pedaling it around. We went to Kristi Mountain Sports to get me a hat (which we never bought) and David found the little bikes. He found a couple that he really liked and wanted to pedal them around. Now we were a little surprise seeing as we have never gotten him to pedal anything. He tried out two bikes in the store. This blue bike is a Specialized Hotrock. David really likes it because "it's fast" and it has spiders on it.
The purchase of a helmet was a little tricky because the one David really liked was of course the most expensive one there. When we tried the kids helmets David didn't like any of them and it took some convincing to get him to find one he liked. We finally settled on this red and black helmet.
David has really enjoyed riding his new bike around in the parking lot. He rides around saying, "Yeee Haww!" and when riding with Dustin, "Let's have some fun!" David has pedal breaks but sometimes he would just rather run into something of coast to a stop instead.
We have already survived our first falls and scape to the paint on the bike.

How fun! For a kid who hasn't really petaled a bike before, he's doing great!
