Melina got her first two-wheel pedal bike last month with money Joey made by selling a bunch of his old vinyl records to Amoeba. She spent a few weeks with training wheels, just to get used to pedaling again (after over a year on a balance bike), not to mention the whole idea of pedaling backwards to brake.

Yesterday we took off the training wheels and lowered the seat. Today she figured out how to stop without crashing. Look at her go!
