Thanks smurf, that is loads better!

Took me ages to learn to ride - or more like believe I could ride. Used to pedal along quite happily, till I realised my mum wasn't holding on to the rack anymore - at which point I would scream "I can't do it!" and fall off. Then I refused to go on it completely for 6 months or so. Funnily enough, once the bike got out of the garage again after that, it didn't take me long at all to get confident...

P.S. I have outgrown both the jumper and the bowl haircut by now!
