Two Wheeler

Although Neela has been riding a bike (with training wheels) for two years she has lacked a bit of confidence on her bike and she has been reluctant to remove the training wheels and learn how to bike on her own.  Enter Pedalheads -  a wonderful program with all different levels of bike instruction.  We enrolled Neela at the start of this week and she has gone every day (2.5hours each day) for the past 5 days.  The result = success!!  Take a look at this confident rider:




We are so proud of her because this has been a major task for her.  She was able to take the training wheels off on the first day but she has had to put in a LOT of hard effort to advance herself. She was out in the heat and the rain....got a ton of bruises and a dozen mosquito bites.... and completely exhausted herself some days, but she did it all without any complaint!! Her instructor says she is ready to move up two levels!  Way to go Neela!
