Bike in Cyprus

Step 5 – Stopping: When they are used to stopping with their feet, get them to practise with the brakes.
Make sure they know which brake works which wheel. Remind them to use the back brake first so they don’t go over the handlebars!
Step 6 – Now pedal: Once they have mastered coasting, steering and braking, replace the pedals and ask them to rest their feet on the pedals as they coast. When this feels natural, encourage them to pedal. This might take an hour, a few hours, or even a few days – just remember to take it at their pace.
Step 7 – Steering: When they can pedal, encourage them to turn the handlebars to one side and ride around you in a circle. Remember to tell them to look where they want to go and to turn the handlebars in that direction.
Step 8 – Practice: Like anything, the more they ride their bike, the better they’ll get.
My kids are too young to ride
Don’t forget that even if your kids are too young to ride a bike they may be able to enjoy the outing in a child seat or bike child trailer. Advice and guidance on the correct seat or carrier and the age from which children are able to go in these should be obtained from cycle retailers.
