Strider Cup

Today was wonderful day. My manual-day :) I learned to ride last straight the way that it didn't feel stupid anymore. And it's a lot after 2 months having feeling of being stupid. I have made some progress, I'm able to see that just by looking my riding speed from Suunto's wedsite, but I can also feel much more confortable on bike. Just wonderful!


When you buy your membership from USABMX, you get magazine once a month. In that magazine I saw article: Strider Cup! That's awesome. They have own cup for 3-5 years old with Strider bikes.

Strider bike is balance bike, or so called walking bike. Child can learn balance what he or she (as you can see again, it would be much easier if you could have only one word describe both genders) needs for bicycle. That kid can have first feeling of getting feet of the ground.

It is just incredible to see when first time kid walks the Strider bike. Then she/he stand on the bike and walk with bike from there. Sit down on and tottering kick some speed. Walk up little hump and slide down strider track without having any problems. Eyes are glowing. Again. I want to go again!

There should be strider track beside every bmx track!
