Do you enjoy riding your bike? The feel of the wind blowing on your face, the shifting of the gears, the exhilarating feeling. Don’t you love that? Back in 2nd grade, I learned how to ride my bike, and I’m so relieved I did. At first, I was really nervous; mostly, because I didn’t want to crash. Having only one hand to steer was difficult and keeping my balance was even harder. In fact, the first time I tried riding without training wheels, I crashed right into the ground. The second time, I made it halfway down the street, and I crashed again. I cried a couple of tears, but then I got back to it. I decided to try for a third time. My mom thought it would be helpful to give me a good push to start, but it wasn’t. Instead of a push, she held …show more content…
I seemed older, and I felt like I could do anything I wanted. I had been learning how to ride for two days now. Today was the day I succeeded, and I accomplished my goal. I tried completing my route again. I crashed the first time, then I finished the day off with completing the entire route. We threw the bike in the bed of the truck, and it was time to go home. I couldn’t wait to do this tomorrow. The next day, I started it off with crashing hard, and it wasn’t really a big deal to me. Sure, I bawled from my cuts and scrapes, but it was so worth it. Anytime I fell, I got right back on my bike with help from my parents. When I rode all the way down the street, I learned how to ride and I learned that part of riding is falling. I have ridden for six years without training wheels, and I still fall from time to time. The best thing about riding your bike is the freedom you get, much like when you get your first car. Actually, learning how to ride your bike is probably similar to learning how to drive a car. They are very alike because they give you that great feeling of freedom and satisfaction, but there is always a risk of crashing. The key to success when riding or driving is you can’t be nervous of crashing, pay attention, and practice a
One of the funniest wrecks i had was right after i gt my new dirt bike it was on christmas day and i thought i could go faster then what i should be going and then i was going through a curve and the next thing i know i'm on the
Have you ever rode a dirtbike? I have my dad got it for me on my 9th b-day. After receiving this dirt bike, I now ride it all over the place. It has become apart of my life!
I love riding four wheelers. I also love to adventure so I guess you could say my character trait is being adventurous. I’ve been riding my whole life, you think I’m kidding but my mom even rode four wheelers when she was pregnant with me so yeah. I got my very first four wheeler when I was three and I rode it till I was nine, but then I wanted to ride with the big boys or girls or whatever. When I was ten I got Yamaha blaster two hundred. It was my first manual transmission four wheeler. It was also a fixer upper, so I restored it to original condition and learned valuable knowledge along the way. So now I know a lot about four wheelers. When I got done fixing it it was a lot better than before. So I figured I was ready to learn how ride a

Bicycling was an exciting experience for two reasons. First, it has allowed me to travel around the city. Second, it gives me a chance to hang out with my friends. I love bicycling, I think it is fabulous! I can now observe my city, the people that lived there, the architecture, and the trees and animals, etc. Sometimes in our life, we just need to slow down our pace. We're so used to rushing through life that we don't even know what we have missed, but It's hard to blame ourselves because we're busy about our jobs especially when we were living in the city. I was once like that; I head right straight to school when it's time for school. As I walk I would only stare at my watch instead if looking to my left and/ or right.
One of the first considerations a rider has to think about is how to start the motorcycle in motion. I am not referring to having the motorcycle turned on and in gear (although these are important, too), but rather to the necessary precautions one must take when moving forward on a high-powered machine such as a sportbike. If too much forward thrust is given right away, the front end of the bike will lift off of the ground. This is because all the acceleration is coming from the rear wheel, and it has a tendency to push the back of the bike up under the front. Some showy riders like to do this on purpose, but if they do not find the proper balance point, they are likely to wheelie over backwards...
I was never afraid of failing. When I was a kid, I took my father's wrench and Disconnected my training wheels from my bike. I knew I was going to fall but I thought of the training wheels like a crutch. I wanted to give myself the chance to fail and learn from my mistakes.
You will have to stand with the bike steady when you come to a stop so it should be comfortable to do. If it is not comfortable, you should maybe think about getting a lighter bike or maybe waiting till you are strong enough to support it. Once you are totally comfortable supporting the motorcycle, you are ready to go out and practice. You should pick a street with not many cars, open parking lot, or a comfortable place to practice. Again, you should have someone who knows about motorcycles or has had experience with them nearby.
I did it. I jumped off. The cold air hitting my face as I plummet towards the gravel. Some panicking, some remained still. I heard one lady scream. Crashed. The pain jolted throughout my body. It didn't hurt as much as the realisation that I didn't succeed. I was still alive. People started to surround me, some dialing 911 to seek for professional help. A man was telling me "Hold on, you'll be fine". I didn't want to hold on.
Make sure your hand can rest comfortably and your fingers do not have to tightly grip the handlebars.
Expensive bikes and wheels. People do not have enough money to buy their own things, so that is why you have to find a way to safe some money. When, I was growing up I did not know how to ride a bike. I am fourteen and I still do not know how to ride a bike. I want to learn how to ,but I am to scared that I might fall and brake an arm or a leg.
I got up and picked up my bike. My mirror was broken, my clutch handle was half there and my kickstand had snapped. I was too far from home to walk back, so I took a deep breath got back on the bike and rode it home. I was shaking as I started out, but as I made it around the first bend and then the second, a sense of elation came over me. I had gotten back on, I was not hurt, and somehow my fear of falling or crashing was muted. I had fallen and I was okay! In that moment, I knew I would overcome my fear and would once again enjoy an activity I had denied myself for so many years. I was not riding fast or even near the speed limit, but I was okay. The wind in my face as tears streamed down it, not from fear but from joy. I knew in that moment I did have the ability to overcome a fear I had carried for over 25 years. The journey would take time and a few gut wrenching moments, but I would be
