Here is the new bike that Quinn got from Grandma and Grandpa Gustason for Christmas. It is a little bit bigger than his old bike, as you can see in the picture below.
Truth be told, that little black bike is his first bike which he received around the age of 3. I don’t recall how long he rode it before the training wheels came off, or at what age he decided to trick it out with pegs so that he could use it for stunts. He does have a 7 speed road bike that fits him a little better, but he never really took to that one – preferring to spend his time on the little black bike doing jumps over a ramp in the driveway or practicing front wheel spins while balancing on his pegs.
When one of the pedals fell off over the summer, we decided it was probably time to trade up to a new model. Features of his new bike; it has both front and back wheel pegs, it has only hand brakes so that he can pedal backwards while braking on the front tire, and it is his favorite color – blue.
Hopefully we can find someone in need of a little black bike of their own. With the new pedals and pegs, it should be good for at least another 6 years.
