Gert Ride 1,
originally uploaded by scifitwin.

Gert shed the training wheels yesterday. She had been practicing in the grass the day before and decided to try the pavement. She came bursting into my office screaming with excitment, "Daddy, come see what I did!"

Sadly, these pictures are on her old bike (which is Matilda's old bike) and not her good bike (which is hand me down from someone else). I wonder if I could get her a junior, junior road bike.

Yes, I know she's not supposed to ride on the sidewalk. But you want to have a four-year-old riding in the street? Hell no, buddy. I'm nervous enough as it is.
