Zachary's Big Day

We got a bicycle from a coworker of mine a few years ago for Zachary. It came with everything a little boy needs for a bike - except pedals. We forgot about the bike for the longest time. In fact, for Christmas, Zachary got a bike (with pedals) and absolutely loves it. A few weeks ago, Marty's mom pulled the bike out of her basement and Zachary has been begging us to get pedals for it. There are training wheels tucked away in the basement, but we never bothered to put them on since you can't ride a bike without pedals.

This afternoon, we stopped at a bike shop in Buford and splurged on a $10 pair of pedals for Zachary to have for a bike to keep at his Granny's house. Little did we know that the first time he got on it he would drive for over 50 feet. I took a couple of quick videos of his first day riding a bike without training wheels. Now we have to get him to try the bike at home without training wheels.

We were so proud of him when we saw what he accomplished. He made us bring the bike home to show off to our neighbors. They were also very proud of our boy. Give him another week or so and he'll be asking for a ramp...
