Learning how to ride on 2 wheels
I was fortunate enough as a kid to have a bike. I didn't know how to ride a bike, so I had training wheels. However, after a while, my siblings thought it was about time I learned how to bike on 2 wheels. We took the bike up the top of a hill. The advice I received from my siblings and their friends was, "All you need to do is hold the handle straight." I pushed off, and off I went. I was biking on 2 wheels! But then, I noticed that I was heading straight towards a tree. Do I just hold the handle straight? Do I attempt to make my first turn and most likely crash? Or do I try to slow down? Or do I..........Too many questions. Too late. I hit the tree.
I eventually learned to bike on 2 wheels that summer.
