I took my friend's five year old out to the trails with me last weekend. I thought it would be a pointless exercise and he wouldn't be able to ride even the novice loop on his walmart NEXT miget bike that weighs considerably mor than mine even though its only thigh high, but i was wrong. He did great. He did all the ruts n roots n little swells we call hills here in south FL with aplomb. He even rode some small dirt jumps though he didn't get any air off of them. I'd been teaching him to ride without his training wheels since before christmas and he was like, "I got a big boy bike for christmas so now I can go ride with you in the dirt on jumps n stuff!" i didn't have the heart to tell him no so we tried...
Anyways, What kind of competition goes on for munchkins in the junior classes? This kid could be a little racer. Anyone have any ideas on what to do to train someone this young? Aside from just taking him with and showing him things while he builds up confidence?
Thnx,
Ty
