How do you teach a 32yo to ride a bike?

I believe I just saw the Trikester in a catalogue. I think it was LL Bean.

Hey, I saw one of the neighbor's kids on a wooden bike w/no pedals. It seemed pretty cool--he thought it was cool, and he could scoot around on it. He told me that when he was ready he'd move on up to a bike like mine!

I remember when we were kids we had an old-fashioned scooter my parents had found at a garage sale. Those of us too little for bicycles would fight over the scooter.

And while childhood memories are running, after my sister had a bad crash after being unable to stop w/coaster brakes (down the steep driveway across the street, straight into next-door neighbor's mailbox, and then to the emergency room to get her forehead sewed up!) my parents got really into putting hand brakes on our bikes.
