We took Ben out for the first time with his new bike (no training wheels). He's been very nervous about this, and was reluctant to try. He kept opting for his scooter, but we decided today was the day. We found a park with some nice, grassy hills for him to go down to practice his balance. Turns out he's a regular little Lance Armstrong...he got the hang of it right away. Now, if only he'd grow another inch - the 20" frame is just a tad too big, and he needs help to get started each time. I'm trying to find an 18" frame cheap on Craigslist because he's only going to need it for a few months. The only one listed is a pink girls' bike for $15, but I'm totally going to get it for him if it's still available.
Here's a little video commemorating this momentous occasion....
