A Boy and his Bike

Well, it's not quite a bicycle, but it's close. It's a Radio Flyer tricycle thingy. Not a true tricycle as it has four wheels. We bought this for him figuring he'd love to push himself up & down the sidewalk. Thanks to an "interesting" design, Nick's heels hit the back wheels as he pushes himself along, which - understandably - did not make for a fun ride.

He'll putter about on it a bit or hold one of our hands which sort of pulls him along...


But by far his favorite method of propulsion is one of us pushing from behind.


Or, better yet, with our hands on the handlebars too. He'll grab your hands and put them there if you are confused on the concept.


Here he is waving at Mommy...


She is going inside because she tweaked her back after pushing Nick down the sidewalk. Not quite the entertainment we were hoping for...
