I have a new hobby. It is riding my
bike. I learned at a bike camp last week by I Can Shine. It was so
awesome. I am mastering things I never thought I could do. At camp, I started
on a roller bike. I learned to pedal without worrying about losing my balance.
I
then got to ride a tandem bike. It was fun.
I Can Shine bike camp had many very
cool volunteers. They made me feel each day I could accomplish more than
yesterday. They got me to finally ride a two-wheeler. It was scary at first but
I got better. I am so glad I went to camp. Riding a bike is fun.
Mom got me a great bike. It is my
favorite color blue. It is a beach cruiser style. I love riding around the
block. It is now my favorite thing to do. I feel so happy. I am grateful for I
Can Shine camp.

Wonderful! I think that riding a bike is an excellent motor skill, and given how much more mainstream bicycles are appearing as transportation, I am grateful to have learnt how to ride them.
ReplyDeleteI remember when I was learning to ride a bike, with my whole family, in the empty high school parking lot during summer mornings.
