No Wheels!!!

Anniek has been riding her bike outside since the nice weather came and is constantly taking brakes in what she is doing to ride her bike on the path that she is allowed to go on. she does the loop once out twice then comes back in.  My goal was to have the training wheels off this year as the new place she is able to ride it more. So I had been slowly moving the one training wheel off the ground until it was not touching at all and the other one only touching half the time.  One of the neighbors that has a child the same age as Anniek said that she told her child that if he went 10 sidewalk squares he could get a slushie.  Another child that is Anniek's size was outside yesterday evening and he does not use training wheels so I asked him if Anniek could try riding his bike.  He agreed and I told Anniek if she could ride three bike between trees that she could get a slushie.  She got on the bike and ride father then the tree!!!   After that Anniek asked me to take her training wheels off so I made sure I did tart before she changed her mind.  Here is a picture of Anniek riding with no training wheels.
