Now I'm cruising...

Until recently, Sydney was content sitting on his bike seat.. and waiting for someone to push/ tow him. Apparently, he has now discovered the link between pedaling and the bike moving. He is still learning about turning the handlebars and how that affects the steering of the bicycle. A few times, he has attempted a VERY tight radius turn, only to tip over and crash the bike. The concept of the coaster brake; where you 'pedal backwards' activating the brake to stop the bike, has not sunk in at all. This is a cause for concern, as a few times we have witnessed him heading towards a potentially dangerous situation and we yelled 'brake'... Only to see him continue to pedal and/or coast.

All in all, he is doing very well. He can pedal on his own, and chase his big bro. All this steering and braking nonsense... that's just details...

Check out Sydney (and his trademark BIG SMILE) riding his bike!
