Hutch and the wooden Velociped
So Hutch ventured around on the wooden velociped today. This was the first time he actually spent more than thirty seconds on it. He pittered around the yard and driveway for like a half an hour! He even tackled the obstacle course I set up for Christine’s mountain bike training in the backyard (I’ll reveal those pics in another post). He went all over the place and I was almost more amazed by watching how the thing teaches balance than I was by what he was doing on it.
Here’s some shots….trying to be artsy…
The velociped power…
Finding his stationary balance point…
Posing on his bike…
Motoring around the yard…
Flashing the look…
Tackling the obstacle course…
I’ve got some video footage of him rolling around too. I’ll post the link to it in the comments section once I get it up on my YouTube channel. He definitely makes us proud.
MOTIVATOR!

perparing him for a brakeless flatland career eh?
So as promised, here’s the link to Hutch’s vid.

enjoy.
career brazeer…
I just want him to ride bikes and be free.
Not like a hippy…
like a punk.
Rob
a punk with a high paying job that he can support you with when you get old and even more ornery?
watch out, you teach him now and he’ll be better than you someday! Then you’ll really be calling him a punk. A punk that you are really proud of an can live vicariously through.
The whole idea is teaching children to be better than we as parents are/were. Right? I am already really proud of him and what he does/who he is, so that’ll just grow.
Oh, and I don’t live vicariously through anyone.
Nor will I require the financial support of my offspring in my twilight years…money isn’t required to grow old an die.
All I need is love.
Everybody….
all you need is love…
