This past week I got to have fun on bikes with Caleb, Autumn, Eliza, Ian and Canyon of the illustrious Miller family in Woodland Park, Co. I am so envious as the kids can do laps on their bikes and rollerblades in the house!
We took the bikes outside and worked on low speed balance, trackstands and a little bit of rear wheel balance. Everyone looked great! Caleb and Autumn got creative with some teamwork that you will have to watch the video to see. Even Ian and Canyon found their sweet spot to balance the little bikes.
Dad Kevin (http://kevinmiller.typepad.com/), a former pro road bike racer with some serious skills of his own was a quick study too. Check out the previous post for his mad wheelie skills.
After biking we had a mini foot trials competition and Caleb and Autumn demonstrated some crazy swingset antics. We ran out of time for trampoline wars so I will have to come back out for that!

Jonathan – you honored us greatly by giving of yourself to our family. I may have mad wheelie skills…but you are a born leader and teacher. Thanks for gifting us with your heart and abilities.

Thanks Kevin! It was tons of fun
