Matthew learned how to ride a bike by age five and training wheels were off by age six. His dad Ross did a great job at teaching him.
Last month at a family gathering Matthew's cousins were complaining that their dad never thought them to ride a bike without training wheels. Unfortunately their dad himself did not know how to ride a bike. I mentioned they may be clubs where kids can be taken to learn to cycle and was told about the Southclaine Cycle Club as they reside in south.
The Southclaine Cycle Club is based in San Fernando and was the first established club in South Trinidad. They train Mondays and Wednesday at 5pm in Skinner Park.

Benefits of Bicycling
There's a special bond between kids and bikes. It is a right of passage, a passport to worlds beyond the front lawn. Biking's benefits includes:
- strengthening the heart, lungs and lower body muscles and bones
- develop and strengthen the muscles surrounding the knees without impact
Do they teach adults also how to ride?
