Elias and his bike

Elias loves riding his strider bike. He recently borrowed and temporarily lost my bike gloves, so we decided to get him his own pair. Tom found the smallest pair of kids gloves at U. Bikes and Elias loves them. Even this xxs pair is a little big but they work themselves down over his fingers over time and end up perfect.


Lately Tom has been taking Elias to the Valmont bike park where apparently he does pretty well. I haven't been myself but Tom says he loves to zoom around the tot track, have Tom push him around the pump track and do something they call "dropping in the hole".


We've taken a few walks with Elias on his strider and he does really well. He starts out with more of a walk or leaning to one side but by the end of the ride has more of a paddle that is well balanced and has a little of a glide in there. Tom keeps telling me that Elias will be tearing up by the end of the summer- yikes!
