We kept telling the girls that once we moved, they would be able to ride their bikes without the training wheels (we didn't want to in our previous neighborhood because it was so crowded and busy). So, the day that we moved in, they started asking to go out. After my Dad, John and Amanda helped us unload the pod, we took the training wheels off their bikes and went out and let them practice.
They did very well and we took them out the next two days to practice. Suddenly, Hannah just took off and we had to run and catch her and we decided it would be a good time to explain how to use the brakes. About 10 minutes later, Alena did the same thing. After another couple days they were doing "tricks", like letting go of the handle bars, lifting their feet up and crashing (that last part usually a result of the former).
