After Wesley popped the back tire on his balance bike this summer, we ordered him a regular bike. He was so excited about his new bike when it arrived that the next time he saw the UPS man, he said to him, "Thank you for bringing my bike!"
I told Wesley he wasn't going to get the training wheels. When the bike arrived in the box, he pointed to the picture and said, "Look it has training wheels." I said, "Well, daddy isn't going to put them on the bike." He was fine with that.
The first time he rode the bike, I tried using a theraband like The Meanest Momma suggested. Wesley's biggest challenge was pedaling and steering at the same time.
These videos were taken during Wesley's fourth time out of his bike.
He has mastered riding down hill and on flat surfaces. He was getting the bike going like the balance bike and then putting his feet on the pedals but now he can start by pedaling.

Great Job, W!
Yes, you're next challenge will be getting the braking thing figured out.
He's doing great!
