I’ve been looking forward to getting Donovan to try without the stabilisers for some time, but as with most things involving four year olds I thought it best not to push him into it (no pun intended). Luckily we recently bumped into his friend on the way home from school, who had not only removed his stabilisers, but had even mastered a few impressive stunts! (standing on the saddle and riding one handed among them…) Donovan ran home and demanded we remove the stabilisers immediately and within an hour this was the result. Success! Only a matter of time before he’s doing 180s on the half pipe…
