Trey had been bugging Calah and Evan to take the training wheels off for about a month or so. Finally they gave in and Evan took them off. he palyed around a bit on Sunday helping Trey figure out how to ride. Calah took Trey to his great grandpma's the following day and he had to take his bike along. She took Trey over to Linda's school for a visit and took the bike out. Linda said it was about 10 minutes after he had the bike out that he was riding all over the place. The day after that I picked Trey up after work and he had me get my bike out so we could ride together. I was a bit stunned when he "took off like a rocket" (his words) and when we were done i looked at my milage and we had ridden 3 miles. Strong willed kid! When he says he is going to do something get outta the way!
