Biking





We intended to go to Anglesea Abbey to have a walk and let the boys cycle around but it turned out to be their free entry day, so we got turned away because it was full. We went round the corner through the village of Lode and there's a disused old railway line to walk along which was doable with the bikes. Leon's stablisers loosened so we ended up taking them off altogether and he had his first bike lesson which involved Tob and I running alongside holding him up. Good exercise! Bikey, as Leon calls his bike, is too small now and we will be moving up to a lovely red 16" wheel kiddie bike given to us by Toby's cousin who's got two boys about 5 years older than our two. It's a lovely bike. I'm still debating whether or not we should get a wooden bike with no pedals so he can learn to balance.

Hahaha, I love how Reuben leans into the corner. Did he tip over? ;)

Yep! he was stationary and had been trying to tip himself over, of course when Tob tries to take a picture he succeeds! It does very much look like he's heading into the corner at speed.
