    Age-Learning to ride bike

    I was 11 yrs. old.
    I am wee late bloomer 'cause I grew up in an 1-bedroom apartment right in the downtown commercial main street in a a city. Then we moved to a house where there was space to store a bike and practice riding up and down the sidewalk. Also streets for children to bike where there was less traffic.

    The park was 1 km. away and it was tiny. But too difficult for young children to walk by themselves to get there 'cause of some major busy traffic intersections.

    My father rode a bike as a young child under 10 but I think he forgot and wasn't interested in relearning. Beside no time, no money since he had to support 6 children and wife. He was more focused on getting a car.
