Good for you on the helmets! Peer pressure can be hard...I was the first in my family to cycle and the 'rents *wouldn't buy* me a helmet (and I wasn't in a position to go get one...). Soon as I hit college and had my own $, bought a new bike and a new helmet...
Good luck on the training wheels - I think there's just an "aha" moment one day for most kids:) She'll get there:)

She went out for a ride this afternoon - rode nearly a mile and at a good speed (with training wheels at middle notch - I didn't move them afterall) and ... drumroll...no crash! She was singing and ringing her bell the whole time. :) Now that I'm using bikejournal - she insists on using my old paper journal to keep a record for her rides. I couldn't be more proud!:D :D :D
