Eat your heart out Lance Armstrong.....

Lily has had a bike with TRAINING wheels since she as about 3. It was getting very small for her considering her knees were hitting the handle bars! Last summer some of our good friends gave us a bigger bike for her. It needed a new tire, and we just put in the back of the garage and didn't really think much more about it.

Last week, DJ decided to fix the tire. After he fixed it, he told Lily "Later this week we will practice riding your bike and I can work with you until you get it." She then asked "Can I please just sit on it?"

He let her and she put her feet on the peddles and............


DOWN THE STREET SHE WENT!!!!DJ grabbed his bike and they went around the block 4 times. It was nuts!!!! She just did it, he didn't help her one time!!! Personally, I think her BMX buddy Callon has rubbed off on her!
