No sterilisers

A momentous day today for McGrew...
He rode his bike without his stabilisers (or sterilisers as he insists on calling them!)

I remember clearly the day I rode my bike without them for the first time, with my dad running behind holding the seat... and then without my knowing, he let go, and I was away... until I realised and promptly fell off!

And so it was today, with me running along behind McGrew, holding his seat, and then when he was on course, I let go and watched with pride as he kept going...

'Look straight ahead McGrew...
Keep peddling McGrew...
Keep your head up...
Well done McGrew!'

Happy memories!
