Family biking

As promised, I have now included a new section listing childrens bikes for sale. The bike section is then divided into girls bikes and boys bikes. Soon I will be adding a new section on trail-a-bikes looking at those accessories that enables you to attach your child’s bike onto an adult bike with a view to go on longer bikes rides with your toddler or young child.

We were out on Saturday on a family biking outing; my two children on their own bike whilst their dad was on his unicycle and I was on foot helping the little ones . We insisted that the kids took their bikes and not their scooters to get them used to cycling. Neither of them are proficient at cycling: our 6 year old still need stabilisers and our 3 years old son who is adventurous refuses to use his brakes but will happily push his bikes for miles! We moved house last summer and our new place is not condusive for children to ride their bikes as our drive is on a slope and the access road is a dirt track also on a slope.
So we have to make a point of taking them out regularly on flat tarmac and change our son’s bike which is heavier than my own bike!

It made me realise how important it is to choose the right bike for your children in the first place and to take them out regularly as soon as the weather gets warmer.
After all that it is my partner who injured himself falling off his unicyle even though he is not a novice!
