Stairs

Got out for a little father son time earlier this week. Ran into some friends with a camera while the boy was showing off his new found riding down stairs skills.


Amazing, couldn't do that a month ago, now he does it like no sweat. His COG to wheelbase ratio makes it almost impossible to go OTB. If he can lay off the brakes, and stay up on the pedals (harder than it sounds when you are new to it), he is fine. He found out the hard way what it is like to slip off the pedals and ride down seated.

Yeah, I always wear full face around the hood.

That's pretty cool, I think I was in my early teens before I braved my first flight of stairs.
